Key Limes

                                            6x6 $90

yesterday's photo updated with more accurate shadows

Here's another version of the key lime and glass vignette. I'm also attaching an updated photo of yesterday's painting because I figured out that I greatly emphasized the shadows due to the way I was viewing the photo on my laptop. I'm not used to using a laptop- nor Picassa editing- and there's a bit of a learning curve going on. Anyway, this version is a bit more vibrant, I think. I'd be interested in whether you think so as well- or not.

One in the Glass

                                             6x6 $90
We hike with a club every Thursday, both here in Arizona and in Washington.  last Thursday, one of the members had a bag of "overstock" key limes from her tree. I didn't know they would be yellow! They look more like lemons, but they taste kind of lemon-limey. The glass is one of a pair that was a housewarming gift from a neighbor- intended for marfaritas (which I avoid because they're loaded with calories). It's hard enough maintaining weight around here with all the Mexican food!
