6″ x 8″ Oil on Raymar Panel
After a hard couple of weeks working on still life paintings, it was nice to get back to a landscape. This painting has the distinction of being approved of by my twelve-year-old daughter. She is not quick to throw out complements so I must have done something right!

They just seemed to be staring at me.
My next book is going to be on ‘How Not To Paint’. I know most artists are brilliant and never turn out poor paintings but my trashcan is full of them this week. Of course my family is outraged. That’s the price I pay for a little bit of integrity. By the way there is no previous book. I just have previous books that I wanted to write such as: ‘Ten reasons golf is easier than painting’.

An apple a day is supposed to keep the doctor away and now so is a glass of wine (that’s one glass!). So we could call this one ‘remedies’ or ‘A Painting for Health Nuts’.

We have pulled these out of the garden this week. This painting is not yet finished. I thought it was but on further review I believe I am going to make some compositional changes. It’s funny how a painting can look good to you and then after you get away from it for awhile you come back and wonder, ‘What was I thinking?’. I’m going to try this one again and I also may get a better photo this time.

Apricots are not artist friendly but they do taste good. These little rascals have a soft fuzz on them that absorbs and diffuses the light. So there are no dramatic highlights to help define the shape and most of the edges are soft. I don’t feel this little study was very successful but I think I learned enough to give it another shot.

This paintings original title was “When He Came Back From Sea She Sang Him A Song”. I like the original title best but it doesn’t fit well in listings. This painting is made up of a combination of items that my children have broken over the years. There were all sitting on a shelf up out of the reach of small hands and I thought it would make a nice little painting.
