Two Down

I completed the revision of the second piece developed during my recent two day workshop with Liz Kenyon. Again....although it was not finished to begin with during the workshop...during the critique at the end of the workshop I realized that in both pieces my compositions were composed of four objects. A general rule of thumb is to have an odd number of objects for a strong composition. To resolve this issue with the piece I titled "Fruit and Spices" I decided to add a paring knife. It fits in the concept as many people like to salt their fruit. It also completes the composition without pulling from the focal point where the salt shaker meets the center pear. Here is the finished piece.
