This still life was set up in my studio and painted from life. I found it challenging to work quickly enough before the ice melted. Rendering glass was my main goal in this one... hope you enjoy...

Another still life painted from life. The shape of this bowl presented a challenge with its almost scalloped shaped sides. When life hands you a bowl of lemons... make lemonade...

This small still life titled "Cadmium Lemon" was painted from life as part of my "a painting a day" series. The play on subject matter ties my love of painting everyday objects like this lemon and my love of art represented by the tube of cadmium lemon paint.

I set up this small still life in my studio and thoroughly enjoyed working with the vibrant yellows. One of the yellows I used was Lemon Yellow... how appropriate! If your mouth drys a bit or you pucker up by viewing this one... I know it was a success! Hope you enjoy this small daily painting titled... "Lemon-a-peel".

Everyday objects painted from life is the essence of the "Painting a Day" art movement that is gaining momentum in the art collecting market.
