Candy Apple 01 Painting WIP
Posted on November 1, 2007
Here is my latest work in progress. As promised in a previous post, I have started to paint the Candy Apples I photographed a couple months ago. So far I have about 4 hours into it.
Everything is progressing relatively well. Taking regular breaks has been the key with this painting as when I come back to it I always find something to correct.
I have been using Unison pastels for most of it but yern for some pastel pencils to get in all the detail I would like. It is 9×12″ on sanded LeCarte paper.
I will post more later…
UPDATE: added newest image.
Candy Apple Series
Posted on September 20, 2007
I previously talked about painting a candy apple at the upcoming Dianna Ponting workshop I will be taking in October. I did some more photography of the subject and will be doing a series once I get started. The first of the series will be one of these photographs.

Candy Apples and a Ponting Workshop
Posted on September 1, 2007
I will be taking a pastel workshop taught by Dianna Ponting in October and am trying to prepare some images to paint. Candy apples have such wonderfull highlights that I thought it would be a great subject.
This photo was taken outside instead of in a studio environment that would have allowed me more control over the lighting, however I like the way this photo turned out. We’ll see if I’ll paint this one or not. I might have to add to my selection of red pastels.
If you like this image and would like to paint it please contact me and I can send you a larger size reference photo.
If you are coming from myeclassonline.com I would like to know why so many from that site are visiting this thread. Please email me directly.
