I'm still on my lemon binge. I had so much fun painting the

knife and the lemons, and the shadows, and

the color shifts under the martini glass,

and the reflections in the shaker.

 Why do I procrastinate?!

But I do, just a little on a daily basis.

Maybe it's that haunting feeling I get about finishing

and feeling like the painting should more this or more that.

'Should' is a very bad work I believe

and I'm trying to eliminate it from my mental vocabulary.

What keeps you from the joy of painting?

The patterns of light and dark continue to hold

my interest no matter what my subject is.

What I'm really focusing on is

how to express these

values and colors with loose brushwork

and a variety of edges.

 

This subject literally falls in my lap from 

my lemon trees in the garden!
