Quince sprig - SOLD

Today I had coffee with friends who have a beautiful yard. I painted there last summer, here and here. This morning we took a stroll around their gardens and I asked if I could have a sprig of their quince to paint. So here it is in one of my antique ink pots.

Three's a crowd - SOLD

This is a re-post as I am still not painting today. My patient is on the mend but it's a wicked virus! Monday everything should be back to normal and I plan to be back in the studio painting and posting. Maybe I'll get out to do some plein air. Our forsythia bushes are in full bloom and are just a shock of yellow. Fantastically cheery. For now, I'm posting another piece from December. Keep healthy everyone!

Slice the dragon

So we sliced it open last night and had it for dessert. What a shock to see how gorgeous it was on the inside. The rind creates a substantial fuschia ring, and the fruit is white speckled with tiny black seeds. It tasted like a cross between a kiwi and honeydew melon, but very soft and mild. But one of the more striking combinations I've ever seen. Very cool.

Hide & seek

I really like painting bowls and plates from a birds-eye view. Love the circles. I had a lot fun with the shapes and colour on this one.
