Pear and Grape Painting

This is for my painting students to see the different steps in this painting.  Sorry the photos are not that good.  I didn't have my camera and  took them with my phone.   I used WOil paint, which is a water soluble oil paint.  First there is the BLOCK IN.  I started this by covering the canvas with Burnt Sienna, thinned down with water; lifting to the lights.  Keep the paint thin.

Then I painted the dark underpainting using Burnt Umber and Ultramarine Blue in the background. Starting to introduce Cad. Orange.  Notice the reflective light on the bowl is similar to the light in the background, still in the "Dark" family.   On the pedestal I greyed the blue with Burnt Umber and a little white.  The darks of the grapes are Ultramarine Blue and Cad. Yellow light. 

Continued with the grapes that are in light and the lights of the pears and bowl.  These are the simple steps, sorry the color isn't quite right in the photos.   Wish I had more time to paint, but that is it for now.
