THREE'S COMPANY, 9106, textured palette knife still life © Carol Nelson Fine Art



I am having fun with these palette knife paintings. The unique texture created by a knife is so pure - you are literally looking at a slice of pure pigment. This is not to say I don't mix the paints out of the tube - I do, but when I have mixed the desired color mixture, it is applied directly. The result is a passage without a lot of blending of colors into each other.
I took a lot of liberties with the colors in these pears. Pears come in a lot of colors although the turquoise may be a bit of an exaggeration.
For purchase information of this painting, please see my website, or send me an email at carolnelsonfineart@comcast.net.
