Still Life With Glass, Apple and Metal 004

This painting was done exclusively with the primary colors — in other words, I used plain red, plain yellow and plain blue. All the colors were mixed with them alone. The glass, apple and metal pieces were done by looking at the objects and finding the shapes I saw in them. After that, I painted those shapes in the colors they actually were.

I see a boldness in this painting that reminds me of 50s-era 3-strip Technicolor, like in the MGM musicals. It pops.

Nice how still the handle is next to the dancing colors and shapes.
