A Full Day of Painting

"Classical Painting Atelier" work in progress day 2 ... sort of

I really just planned to show you pictures. I worked most of a long day on "The Poker Club" but I'll wait for another session to show what's up there.

So, this is my painting from yesterday with about another hour and half's worth of work.

While I was giving my demo for my Still Life class, we talked about its focal point. Giving a demo is different than just painting. There's less careful consideration. It's all action. 

I thought my focal point would be the yellow gourd on the right. That's changed. The brussel sprouts on the left and that green gourd are my main areas of interest and the yellow gourd points the way.

A quiet still life.
