Day 6

Fifteen minute lemons! Blame it on my dinner date--if I had a little more time, ummmmmm, well, no, it probably WOULDN'T be better, but fast is fun, I think. Didja paint today, Jayne? [Now they are 30 minute lemons]



Rach - those are beautiful! I love the detail in the dish. Hey - fifteen minutes is so much better than nothing at all! The point is, that we're doing this. I can't remember the last time I painted two, let alone four days in a row - who cares if it was a tiny canvas or just fifteen minutes. I'm feeling so much better just doing this - I'm looking at it as practice. Like today I really thought about painting the shapes that I saw (I know, I still got caught up in some detail, trying to paint what I knew it was instead of just painting the shapes). I did the pears this morning and had time this afternoon to whip off the apples. They were done on a board I had that was primed in blue. It was really interesting painting on a blue ground. . . anyway, it's not done by any means, but it's done for now. Off to the art store.
