Home Cooking x Christmas Eve Dinner

T'is my favorite holiday of the year! As a custom for Christmas Eve, my family invited our family friends home for dinner. While being in the state of jet lag, I still managed to take some pictures of the festive decorations and yummy food.

Fruit Waterfall

I've done a few drawings in art class this year that I'm not confident enough to post. I'm sure it happens to everyone: when you start an artwork, you have this perfect image in mind; and once the drawing starts flowing in way that you haven't expected, you instantly see the many flaws in it. 

Nonetheless, I decided to post my first painting of the year. It's an acrylic on canvas (though it might look like oil painting instead), which I named Fruit Waterfall because of the feedbacks given by my friends. "The fruits look like a family waiting at a bus stop on water puddles under the rain," one commented. Though the color of the background is not what I've originally planned (I was thinking of a darker blue that can complement the orange and red), I'm quite pleased with the "waterfall" effect it creates. Additionally, the composition of my set-up and my piece resembles a photo of Petite Amanda's cakes I took a while ago.
