A series of everyday things, small and familiar, related or not. That was the brief. All day at work, at every break from writing code, the words "paint food" popped into my head. Perhaps this was my unconscious screaming at me for more broccoli or perhaps I am a nascent cookbook author? I'm not sure but I did know that food on a plate was going to have to be the subject.
So here they are (and they are pretty much life-size!). I love painting small things; I love my 00 brush. Maybe I should try small scenes - say 2" x 2" - maybe then the landscapes would work for me.
This was our last class. But fortunately for Debbie and I, Jan is teaching pastels in July so we are signing up. I'll have to research miniatures in pastels, see what the precedent is...
See you soon.

I love the paintings. I haven't quite decided about the pastels class but I probably won't do it since I would miss 2 classes. It was fun having a class with you. Perhaps we'll take another one together sometime.
Here is the link to the public view of the photos of my paintings.
