My apple mini series is complete! I’m probably quite a few apples shy of a bushel, but I like the idea of calling them a bushel. This series flew by and I really enjoyed painting them, but I’m glad to be done with apples for the time being. There are only so many ways a…

Eighth Apple Still Life – Bushel of Fun
I’m in the apple home stretch! Only one more apple still life left and the mini series will be complete. Not only that, but the walls in my studio are filling up. I’ve never filled up my walls before so I’m actually really proud of myself for being so productive. I’m working on making…

Sour Apple Still Life
Nearly all of my paintings go through an ugly duckling phase, but this one was especially ugly. Thanks to effective damage control, pictures are the only evidence. Sometimes I get in a rush and don’t spend the time I should on sketching. In this case, I rushed through both the sketch and the block…
