Grapefruit, gouache. It was really intimidating at first, but I had a lot of fun with it. The different textures and translucence of some areas was a lot of fun. Admittedly, I picked a relatively easy view this time. I'm definitely going to revisit citrus fruits :)
I need to work on simplifying. In all my paintings I spend too much time adding details, and speed paintings have always been a weakness of mine. I'm going to try to start doing a speed paint every day as a warm up. After a while, I want to try to do a series of the same object, using fewer brushstrokes in each version.
