Just an imaginary, made up scene, somewhere I'd like to be, without the buggies of course.
Let's just imagine there is a nice breeze, so we can have a lovely mid-day picnic. What shall we eat?

Here's another one on reclaimed canvas, this time a panel, which KM found for me at Goodwill. Yay!
It's a perfectly good canvas, still had it's plastic wrap on it, and it was wonderful to paint on today. The landscapes come so much more easily to me than say, grapes. Thanks for looking.

Grapes in Green Bowl

I revised this one today. I have no problem whatever attacking a painting that needs revision. Don't you think it's much better? I changed the shape of the bowl (it was wonky on the left side,) made the background dark, changed the color and shading on the bowl, and went over the grapes more carefully. NOW it's nice.
It has a bit of a formal look to it, but that's okay.

Here's how it looked before.

A simple bowl of grapes, but this one took me a long time today.
I'm not sure if I like it or not, I've been looking at it for awhile.

You've seen this similar pieces, before. I've used the reference photo a few times. But I had this lovely canvas, and wanted something easy to paint, just for the pleasure of using such nice canvas.
