I don’t usually paint many still lifes. But every once in a while I get the urge to paint from life and I’m too much of a whimp to paint outside in the winter. I recently painted this pastel as a compositional study in ovals and circles. I also experimented with a very limited color palette…

    I thought this was an oil at first – the apples are wonderful – especially with a limited palette!

    thanks, Regina. Coming from you I consider that high praise!
