Tomato Harvest and Brrrrr.......

Underpainting for "Tomato Harvest" 
First Colors Applied
"Tomato Harvest" Work in Progress
6 x 6" Oil on Gessobord

This is a commission I was asked to paint for a friend's son who is an extraordinary tomato grower.  I'm showing you the underpainting which has been done for about a month so it was good and dry.  And then I started working on the color today.  No reason to wait that long in between, just had to get my tomato "mojo" going.

No heat in the studio today....it's a long story which I don't have time to tell.  Let's just say I needed to paint fast and find a warm spot for coffee.
