"Sugar in your tea?" 6in x 6in oil on panel

Polished my sugar bowl the other day so I thought I had better use it before it tarnishes again.  I like the way the shadows hold the composition together.

Thank you for viewing my art.   Sold.

"Silverware toss" 6" x 6" oil

I am building up my painting stash to sell at the Cherokee Art Fair this Spring.    I also wanted to practice on my silverware skills.   I am liking my looser style.

"Six Forks" 6in x 6in oil

I got a bit carried away today with everything being even.    It is so hard to change what you have always done!   Making things even, making them match, making things line up...  everything tidy!

My dog hates it!    I am learning to relax.

Are you being served? 6"x6" oil

It is so rainy and overcast today that I had a hard time taking the photo.   Serving pieces are the subjects today just in case it wasn't obvious.  To give you a scale the cake server on the upper left is 10.5" long with the serving part being 5" long.    On this painting it all looks small.   Well, the little fork for olives or pickles is small but long.   So far in this series I have polished 43 pieces of flatware... I think I am over with this series.  Will see how I feel tomorrow.

Spooning 6"x6" oil

In my studio I have two large north facing windows and while I use a bright light on my still life I usually get some reflection of the cool light in my shiny objects which gives me the excuse to put in some cool blue specks.   I felt like I was part of Downton Abby today polishing all this silver.

Misunderstood relatives 6"x6" oil

These are the items that I have that give me questions.   Some I know like the gravy ladle and the cake server, the butter knife, but what the heck is the item on the lower left?  it is a kind of shallow spoon server but what for?   One of my students said it was to serve condiments of sort.  This was laid out on a white tablecloth and as I painted I noticed a bit of  pink in the white.

Silverware toss 6"x6" oil

Sold

A friend of my suggested I paint a pile of silverware.   I started with a hand full of about 12 and it was a mess and, to me, not very interesting so I tried 5, which is a good number.   Threw them many times and pulled on the fabric and finally came up with this composition.  

I'm happy. ;-)
