Onions, Original Oil Painting Still Life on Canvas


The Challenge for this month for the Pieces of 8 group is to paint a painting in 50 strokes. I've been enjoying that exercise. Below is my 50-stroke painting of these onions, smudges and all. I decided to refine it to a finished painting. Which one do you like best? I think the 50-stroke one is more exciting. Watch this space on December 31st to see the entries to the Challenge from everyone.
