Plastic sheep and pineapple flavor

A companion piece to the previous painting. I'm beginning to get enthusiastic about the idea of putting children's toys into still life paintings.

Ceramic cup and matches

 Oil on Masonite, 10 x 15 cm:


Been a while since I have painted a little still life setup from direct observation - it's always a good exercise.

Assorted mini pictures

A bunch of small paintings, acrylics on Masonite, 65 x 90 mm (= ACEO size, 2.5 x 3.5 inches), which can be turned into handpainted fridge magnets by simply sticking a magnet to the back:


The above for sale on my Daily Paintworks Gallery.

SOLD



I rather enjoy painting these - quick, not overly serious, and they allow me to freely experiment with various subject matter, styles and techniques.

I am currently taking some time every day to upload one or two of these (plus a whole bunch of others) to my Bid-or-Buy store.

Tomato and banana

Acrylics on Masonite, 15 x 20 cm:


I have been rather busy with bankers and bureaucrats, as well as some non-fine art projects (watch this space!). But finally had time for a quick painting again. This sort of small still life done from the result of a raid on the kitchen remains an old favorite genre of mine.

Ceramic and egg

Oil on board, 20 x 15 cm (= about 8 x 6 in).
Painted with a limited palette of ocher yellow, ocher red, black and white. Using such a limited range of colors makes for an interesting challenge, particularly if you try to paint green or blue things; I cheated a bit here by picking subjects with colors that could be fairly easily approximated with what I had available.

Onion and bottle

Oil on board, 20 x 15 cm (= about 8 x 6 in):


Back to still life, but I decided to try something other than my usual dark backgrounds.
