Pomegranate Slaughter

And yet another panel still life. I just love these scenes and the pomegranates. The contrasts in the colors is so great as opposed to a landscape. I really like the feel these scenes present. Also pomegranates just work so well in paintings. I chose to leave the knife and plate in this scene as it really brings alot of action to this still life. The puddle of juice from the pomegrante resembles a puddle of blood under the knife. You can see the bits and pieces also remaining from the pomegrates scattered along the plate. It almost (well does) makes you feel sympathy for the poor pomegranates.
