Well, I have worked a little bit with the painting, but too much has been happening in my non-studio life.
I thought this apple would turn brown before I could finish a sketch, much less a painting, but in looking back, I'm not singing praises for my work. It was important that, at least, I put in the time and try. I love this bottle that I found at IKEA. They sold in a 3-pack in different shades of aqua. What a find! I need to work on more interesting set ups..... that seems to be my big struggle-du-jour. In this second painting, non of the items appear to be anchored down. Well, all of them have that problem. Perhaps I'm worrying about the wrong things here. I have a few other things to post, but not all at once.

I love the top paintng especially!
So good to see you back.
Hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
These color combinations are just amazing! I am a huge fan of pastels and find these painting so soothing and inviting, really lovely work!

Maybe because they are on a blue base which makes one think of the sea. Anchor down! hee hee.
I have a still life I did with my mother and the eggplant looks like it's in motion zooming around the other vegetables. I didn't like it at the time, but now I find it amusing.

Kathryn... your work is lovely and inspiring to me as always. I've been doing pastels from pictures, and haven't done but one set-up yet. I'm hoping that changes when I'm done with the current one I'm working on. I have lots of props that I would like to try out. It's just getting the physical space in order first. Those pears of yours are awesome!
