Two More Lemons

I spent the afternoon painting two more lemons. The close up below shows my experiments with using more expressive brush strokes to harmonize with the white impasto.

Here’s the view from ten thousand feet. I’m pretty happy with the lemons, but want to darken the cast shadows a bit more under the lemons to create lost edges. The lemon on the right is problematic because it has a fairly light shadow, so I will probably have to add more reflected light to the lemon in lieu of darkening its shadow.
