Two Peaches, Two Hydrangeas

 

Time in  the studio has been scarce lately. Time will remain at a premium as Hubby recovers from his surgery.  Also, I've been working on some larger pieces.  Thanks for your patience. 

A Few Grapes and a Lemon

Finally, I am back in the studio and this is my first attempt following last week's workshop. It's so good to paint!

Pea Pods #2

This is the smaller version of the painting I posted yesterday.  It's 5x5, acrylic on 300 lb. watercolor paper. It's been varnished for additional protection and enhancement.

Pea Pods #1

These pea pods were part of a package of stir fry vegetables but, of course, I borrowed them first for a still life.  I just threw them on the plate and went with how they landed.  Once again, I realized that painting from a setup often leads me to tightening up.  I guess that comes from having done realism for so long. When I do a setup the next time, I will do the drawing(s) and then paint from that drawing. Anyway, I did a smaller edition of this without the setup which I will post tomorrow.

Hydrangeas with Lemons #3

Lots of fun to paint. My hydrangea bush continues to bloom.  Thanks for looking.
