I agree with Nora, the overhead perspective is really great! I love how the radishes draw the eye around the painting. Like the touches of red reflections in the bowl, too.
Thanks for stopping by to inquire about me. I'm getting better...trying to feel up to painting!
Chicken Shaker by Angela Sullivan I just thought that I would post this in two versions. The original and the revised. I don't usually post personal things but I couldn't resist. Logan my grandson has just moved to town. He is five. That should tell you enough but I will continue. I painted this the other day of a salt shaker my husband gave me for Christmas and a few grapes. It was still on my easel when Logan came for a visit. The next morning I went to paint and my chicken looked a little different than it did the night before. It was kinda streaked and some red was in places that I did not intend for it to be. I ask him and Paul my 6 year old grandson if either of them had been in my studio and if they knew why my painting was smeared both said no but then Logan went on to say as he pointed at my palette knife. I think they used that to do it with. I looked closer to find the tip of the knife covered with red paint. Paint just like is on the chicken beak. How could I be...
Getting My Feet Wet A day at the beach is soooooo much fun. I find that you can just romp and play until your tongue hangs out....No literally. So much fun that no wonder we can't come here every day. I would only weigh about a pound. I have never thought of exercise in such an enjoyable way. Wow! am I tired.

I Do Like Palm Trees In southern California there are palm trees everywhere. Those white stucco houses with those beautiful rich burnt sienna colored roofs forever stand out against the blue blue sky. Gotta love it.

Not especially fond of radishes, Angela - but I love them in your painting. Nice colors, really good composition and terrific brushwork.
ReplyDeleteThis painting is a gem! I like the still life paintings you do with this overhead perspective. Awesome.
