I'm back again (at least for a couple of days). I'll be heading out on a two week trip to capture some scenes for future painting subjects. I'll of course be posting the finished works here. Please hang in there with me... I plan to get back in full action (including posting every day) once I return ... August 1st. Most of what I'm doing right now are small works that will be on display at a future exhibit (October 2011). I'll post more about that as the time approaches. I have a wonderful still life set up and ready to go when I return. I think you'll like it...
So... what have I been up to? I've been painting Cherries! One of our local stores had a sale of the most beautiful succulent cherries I've seen in a long while! I just couldn't resist grabbing a handful and posing them... I didn't capture the steps this time. I know some of you really like seeing the steps so I promise to get back into the groove of doing that in August.
"Fiesta Cherries":
"Fiesta Cherries" is on 6x6 linen. The cherries are piled in the small bowl - typically found in the center of a vintage Fiesta relish dish - in this case the piece represented is vintage turquoise blue.
