Hello!
It's a very traditional theme, as you said in the comment, but it's also a very beautiful work! You managed the theme very well--it's easy create something boring using old themes, but you did a great work.
It's very realistic, and well done. Also the light, wich is my favourite part. You really painted well the reflections.
The only thing I could suggest, is that maybe the scene is a little "empty". Adding another object (a glass, maybe? or a bottle?) could be an idea for your next work. Obviously it's only my opinion, and I'm not graduated at any Art school so you can simply ignore it XD

Anyway... I really love this piece !

hi Camix, thanks very much again, and you´re right,
the table is big for the objects, its like a horizon or something. the next will be better i hope

Well balanced work, colours and composition
Yet it looks a bit cut, especially in width - did you crop the image?

carlosmonteiro In reply to RandomSearcher [2008-04-11 23:38:15 +0000 UTC]

the painting isn´t right on the left side, so i will repaint the grapes, to " uncut " the composition...

Oh, I see... Hope we'll see the other version Though I can't figure out how to do this with little change - the grapes look so perfect now that I would be afraid to touch them

dahora velho......na minha opinião o oleo é foda porque demora pra secar...........como vc faz demora um mes pra resolver......

carlosmonteiro In reply to marcioyaguiu [2008-04-11 23:35:47 +0000 UTC]

fala marcio, hoje em dia é muito traquilo fazer a tinta óleo secar de um dia pra outro. tem diversos mediums e secantes... normalmente trabalho todo dia, então não posso esperar a secagem, a não ser q o motivo precise de correções na técnica wet-on-wet, aí é necessário ter a tinta molhada...

marcioyaguiu In reply to carlosmonteiro [2008-04-12 19:08:03 +0000 UTC]

opa vc poderia me falar um tipo de medium que eu poderia usar que tem por ai barato.......eu gostaria de saber como aplicar blz.......

carlosmonteiro In reply to marcioyaguiu [2008-04-15 00:40:22 +0000 UTC]

barato tem o - Oil gel secante - da Acrilex .
e caro tem o Liquin, da Winsor e Newton.
esse é excelente. vc põe a tinta na paleta e pinga
uma gota ou duas em cima do bolo e aplica na tela.
ou põe tinta no pincel e mergulha direto no frasco.
fiz isso num trabalho q tá aqui, o - Inspired by Valerie -
as pinceladas brilham bastante

marcioyaguiu In reply to carlosmonteiro [2008-04-15 13:25:22 +0000 UTC]

esse da acrilex é bom, tem brilho? e seca rapido dentro de quanto tempo seca?e gostaria de saber se vc passa por baixo da tela alguma coisa pra tampar a trama da tela porque eu quero fazer uns traços finos com o pincel e sai muito grosso........a trama não deixa.......e quando vc vai preparar a tela vc passa o que....

carlosmonteiro In reply to marcioyaguiu [2008-04-15 16:37:41 +0000 UTC]

cara, o lance é procurar uma tela com pouca aspereza e mandar bala... pode tb passar uma suvinil acrílica com água e dar uma lixada bem de leve. sobre os secantes, vc vai ter q fazer experiencias...

marcioyaguiu In reply to carlosmonteiro [2008-04-15 21:17:22 +0000 UTC]

opa legal velho vou ver se faço as experiencias.....gostaria de saber se o secante demora quanto tempo pra secar.......a tinta acrilica demora menos pra secar........

carlosmonteiro In reply to marcioyaguiu [2008-04-15 23:43:46 +0000 UTC]

cara, o secante demora 1 dia, se a tinta for aplicada bem ralinha na tela. pra pintura com muito impasto, aí demora mais um pouco, tipo 2 dias...

PhantasmicMuse [2008-04-10 20:43:42 +0000 UTC]

This is absolutely amazing!

The attention to detail and integration of the tones found in the grapes into the bowl really solidifies the piece. I can only imagine how rich the brushstrokes and colors must be in person.
