Instead of painting in my studio I just set this still life up in my living room and painted as I watched TV. This is the final picture and I posted it twice just so it would post right.  1. I start by blocking in placement with darks and light.  I moved the cup and decided to leave the frog out...  After I got the basic focus blocked in I decide to Paint in the dark background.

And Fruit by Angela Sullivan

And Fruit by Angela Sullivan Always I seem to have a problem with naming my paintings. I stand before them when they are done and I am sure I must have the most puzzled look. What should I call it? With each one special and deserving of a good name sometimes I am sure I fall short. But when you have named almost 2,000 paintings they all seem to run together. Anyway that is my dilemma. I have been painting larger lately. This one is a 20x16 oil on gallery wrapped canvas. It has loads of thick rich paint.

Jar Head Do you remember those wonderful little glass baby food jars? I am older and have little reason to peruse the baby food isle but the last time I did go there what I saw was a lot of plastic square boxed. Now just what can you make out of that.
