The Greg Biolchini workshop was awesome and intense. Here is the still-life painting I did - so worth the struggle. I intend to include it in my Zola "New Works" show!
Apples and Oranges
Pastel, 18" x 12"
The oil painting is more or less complete. I keep worrying about the bright blue in the shadow of the plate on the left. Some days it's fine, but others it looks too intense. Need to paint the edges of the canvas, so I may fudge with it more. Have decided to use this as the post card image for "New Works".
Three Graces
Oil on Canvas, 24" x 48"
I was fortunate to return to Lake George and find my still-life arrangement remained in tact. I really didn't want to work from photos to finish it and was overjoyed to continue where I'd left off a month ago! This too will be in the show.
The Apron String
Pastel, 12" x 18"
Last, but not least, I returned from vacation and got right to work on my donation piece for the WPSU Wine Celebration fund-raiser. I'd had an idea before and was able to make it a reality. I just love it and hope someone else will agree.

Off to the framer and back to work! Enjoy
