Opposites Attract




When I finished this little 5 x 7" pastel painting and saw the slight left-leaning slant to the Shamrock Green Fiesta Ware mug, I got the idea for the title!  Obviously the color scheme was a complimentary one...opposites on the color wheel, but little did I know I'd create a magnetic draw between the mug and apple.

I'm having tons of fun working with pastels for awhile.  They're messy for sure but their pure pigment is a colorist's dream!
