Really, the key to painting or drawing is learning how to really see. Instead of thinking "okay I'm painting two oranges with shadows and lighting highlights" train your mind to look at what you actually see. Not that you haven't done this here. In fact I think you have.

And Lou, I doubt 15.00 would cover the paint costs if this is in oil, much less the canvas and frame.

Learning to mix the colors to make it match what I see is the hardest thing for me right now. It is sort of fun though.

I have to step out, but when I get back I'll have to post an extremely embarrassing pic of my very first attempt. I'll sell that one for $15.00 (unsigned of course).
