| Hands Off Those EGGS!! 8" x 10' $80 I often take the Challenge for the Daily Paint Works ( http://www.dailypaintworks.com/Challenges ). This week the challenge was to paint a chicken. He is such a spunky rooster that I could not resist. Thankyou Carol and David. |

| Red Apple Study 8" x 10" Oil My palette was full of red paint from the first try so I decided to do some red apples. Apples are tricky objects, more work is needed. |
 |
| Green Apple Study 8" x 10" Oil This was my third try. I found this to be a most exciting excercise. Having tried this in Carol's class a year ago, it was frustrating as can be, a year later it is FUN and I feel it has loosened me up a bit!! |

| Green Fruit on Silver 9" x 12" Oil $200 After completing 3 studies, I decided to treat myself to a small painting excercise with reflections. I allowed for more time, about 45 min to an hour and used a 1" angle brush on a black canvas. I wanted to have a dark background and thought this would be a good start. The black was mixed using Alizerin Crimson, Ultra Marine Blue and a tad of Thalo Green to cut the purple of the other two colors. I purposely kept the composition simple to work on brush strokes, colors and reflections. |
