"Tomatoes and Onions," oil on panel, 12"h x 9"w, copyright Jill Banks 2011 |
Then, realizing that I needed to switch subjects, I returned to this painting that I had started as a quick demo awhile ago in my still life class. New tomatoes and different onions were cast as replacements ... and I couldn't find the bowl the originals were placed in ... so left that part of the painting as is. I wasn't sure how successful this was until I took the photo. Funny how that works sometimes. I may still tweak it tomorrow, too but it looks good to me at the moment. Hope that moment lasts.
We had our end of class party yesterday ... with the majority of the class staying for some good food (lots of good cooks) and fun. This has been a great session and I'm a bit sorry to see it end. I'm still working on what workshops, classes will be offered this summer. Coming very soon!

Great food, great cooks, GREAT class- with talented artists in every corner of the classroom. Can't wait for summer workshops. Nancy
I totally agree! I was out scouting a painting site and thinking about those summer workshops today. Check the blog out later for a hint.
