After days of working on this painting I’m finally on the right track and moving forward. I have decided to call it “Still life with pear”, I know it’s not a very imaginative title but I hope the quality of the work will speak for itself here.
Not only am I on the right track with this still life but I did a bunch of work this weekend on my website and I figured out that I had my sessions incorrect. I was off by a couple days. This is very important because I’m coming up on 1000 consecutive days of art very soon. This also kind of sucks because all the paintings I have sold up until now have the session and work number written on the back. Well, it can’t be helped…
I spent about two hours today just working on the emerald glass. I wanted to get the drawing of this glass perfect. There is nothing more distracting than geometric shapes drawn incorrectly in a painting so it was imperative that the glass looked perfect. So far I’m very happy how this painting is progressing and I can’t wait to get the pear and some of the drapery done tonight. Besides, the pear may be starting to get mushy…
