"Green Onions"

Oil
I can't believe that it's been a year and a half since I've painted in oil and two years since I've done a palette knife painting. Even though oil isn't my favorite medium, I do like painting with a palette knife so it surprises me that I've let so much time pass without using that tool.
I went to the Farmer's Market this weekend hoping to find some incredible vegetables to paint but there was nothing that screamed "PAINT ME" so I ended up with these little onions. I chose a red background to add some punch. I do love red but rarely use it. I wonder what's up with that? I'll have to concentrate when I make my color choices for future paintings instead of always going with my comfortable colors.
