When Life gives you Oranges

I have never really painted oranges before but I love my blue dinner plates and wanted to set up a still life with the plate in it.  So we had these oranges.... the kids kept trying to take the oranges off of the plate and eat them, it was complicated. However, I loved the contrast I got with the orange and blue, so another one of my favorite items in my kitchen is the turquoise antique kitchen scale so I pulled that out too. Had so much fun! Hope you like them!
