A textured acrylic painting with gloss varnish finish and brown frame

I made this series of paintings to experiment with different styles of techniques and approaches. I chose a still-life subject that can represent day-to-day experience. We usually start the day by eating something to give us the energy to spend on our everyday activities. I started painting the subject from realistic to total abstraction.

This is the product of several exercises on drawing and painting hands. 

Hands have always been an intimidating subject. After many failures, I finally mustered the confidence to paint it on canvas, using the material I'm least good at. This is a result of self-improvement. I hope you like it as much as I enjoyed learning and succeeding with this piece.
