Coconuts

I finished my coconuts painting.  I started in in acrylics but finished it in oil.  I get brighter colors when I paint in oil.  Acrylics dry darker so the color you think you are painting with will look so much darker when dry.  I sold my painting "Red Coconut".  I went looking for another photo to take.  Here in Fort Myers we have lots of coconut palms.  I could not find any coconuts.  Maybe there is a season when they grow.  So this was painted from two old photos that I combined on photoshop.
