Shell-ing a-Round #06

Yet another of the cooked Mussels, just because I like how it looks with both shell parts and the yellow-orange interior. But this is the last of the Mussels ACEO mini-series.

The inside part of the Mussels, when boiled, takes an yellow-orange color which makes a very interesting contrast with the blue of the shells. Another ACEO, trying to capture how the cooked Mussels look like:

And yet another Mussel! Still trying to get a more realistic look, and struggling with the acrylics - I have the tendency to work in layers as I do in watercolors.

Shell-ing a-Round #03

The third ACEO painting for the challenge, and it is again a Mussel. Trying to get a smoother shell texture, and some glow with this and next one.
