I'm thinking I need to be more imaginative with my titles for these paintings...I guess because I'm kind of new at the whole 'Still Life' genre, I'm still a bit literal-minded with them. I have a narrative in mind for the big painting (for which I'm using these as practice pieces, or test runs) - and that's not to say I don't think these studies don't have character, but I'm finding it difficult to express in words what I feel about these paintings (gasp! isn't that the purpose of this blog?!!)

I was given a few beautiful white pitchers by a friend, Lon Marie who is clearing out because she's moving to Hawaii to marry hunky surfer/artist Derek Glaskin - how exciting! I couldn't wait to get them home and start painting them - their simple forms are stunning, and the effect of different light on them has given me lots of ideas. Expect lots more of these paintings!
