Wow, the months have flown by but I am back blogging! The painting seems to get in the way of blogging! I went off on a fruit portrait fling and enjoyed it immensely, kiwis, oranges, strawberries, figs still clinging to the branches in winter. I learned a lot about shadow and light, mixing colours and composition. Today I am working on my first figurative piece and will post it later along with my fruits. I am being called back to my painting at the moment!
