Red Onions

8"x8" Oil on board

These red onions came from the market, I don't often see them with the roots still attached like this...so it was a lucky find! They look like they have beards...fun to paint!! I liked the strong shadow the light created and muted reflection from my gray glass palette.

    Beautifully painted onions and the shadows really cast them to the foreground ! Love the roots :-)
