Over this year I have painted a lot of apples. You would think that they would get easier, but you would be wrong. Of course the drawing of the contour of the apple isn’t hard, but the detail of the skin with its subtle shifts in color and value can prove to be a huge challenge especially depending on how deep you look into the apple. Like most living things the longer you stare deep into it, the more detail you see.
