Here is an initial set up including fresh flowers, fruit, and objects. Although the "look" and light movement were appealing, after blocking in and completing the first painting day the composition seemed a bit crowded.
I decided to eliminate the teacup and rearrange the flowers.
After all the idea was about the light not the objects.
Finally, the last images show the edited placement and framed painting.
"Lighten Up " 8"x10" o/b made its way to the Graton Gallery and eventually to a collector's home.
