bowl of cherries


Painted this 5 x 7" this weekend. I have admired so many of my artist friend's cherry paintings. I don't feel like I have been that successful when I have painted them.
Back to my huge girl painting now. I have gained two pounds today stress eating through the painting. Trying to finish it so I won't do that tomorrow. It is coming along pretty well. So is my waistline.

  1. I think your cherries look great! I like this painting and love the bowls. I got a ton of still life props for Christmas- just need to get painting them.
    On a happy note, at least you are eating your way through the girls painting- could be worse? Haha! You will be fine- I love it so far and am so proud of you and to see the big jump you have made lately! Keep it going!
