Sweet things
Nowadays, I try hard not to eat these things. But they are fun to paint.

Random bits and pieces
I can't always just work for the market; I'd go crazy that way. I'm an artist, not a money making machine. And thus, in between, I make time for all manner of random things. Like a fun hobgoblin:
It's the evil hobgoblin from Hans Andersen's story The Snow Queen, with his magic mirror. I may just get it into my head to do a whole set of illustrations for the story, which is on eof my favorite Andersen tales.
A portrait sketch:
And some quick studies after Pieter Bruegel, the Elder, and artist whose work I have long admired:

Tomato, egg, pepper shaker
Oil on board, 20 x 15 cm (= about 8 x 6 inches):
As usual the camera did not reproduce the colors quite accurately. I boldly claim that the original looks better.
This work will appear on my Bid-or-Buy store as soon as it is dry enough to transport!
