Radishes

Painting from life.

These are called Easter Egg Radishes...fun to paint, but I am not a big fan of their taste.  The greens wilted on me as I painted them in the studio under a light.

Day #17 Strada Easel Challenge

Loose brushstrokes, thick oils, harmonious colors - it all fell together at my easel for the daily paint challenge of painting from life.  A small arrangement of alstroemeria was my subject matter for this painting.  I painted this one alla prima in about 4 hours in the studio.  It was fun and exciting to paint this bunch of petals.  Thanks for looking at my blog!  Kay
