Tomatoes!

Tomatoes

I'm picking the last tomatoes of the season, so I decided to use them as the subject of my first still life. Being the last on the plant, they aren't as perfect or pretty as mid season tomatoes,but I think it gives them character! This was just a quick little study I did in a couple of hours this afternoon. I set them up on a table by the window so I'd get a good cast light on the left. They are in a hand made ceramic bowl, which was fun to do too. I think I'll continue with it later and try to make them even more realistic!
