Love of Three Pomegranites???

9 x 11 pastel on mat board

I've decided to play again with still life, after buying a pomegranite for a dish I never made and decided to paint instead! I'm using liquid acrylic, as I have in other still life, in order to set some base color that I want to show through, and I'm using soft pastels to layer color. I like the juxtaposition of saturated color in the fruit and lightly applied layers in the background. I haven't paid as much attention to color as I might, and I see a potential series of many more pomegranite pictures to come! Hey, at least they aren't pears!!!
