Darling Clementine

I set up this little still life for my Friday morning class and decided I would have a go at it myself once everyone had gone home! Believe it or not I have had these clementines with leaves since before Christmas, sitting in my studio quietly waiting to be used in a setup!
The little tinted glass is so light I could breathe on it and blow it over. I have Avril at the local charity shop to thank for that one and also another 2 tiny orange glasses I have in another still life set up I am struggling with today! It may not see the blog page.. so don't hold your breath for that one!

  2. Thank you Cathy,the glass was a joy to paint - the clementine a bit more difficult, I do find mixing oranges challenging,still like everything in life, the more I do it, the easier it should be! I hope you are well and enjoying some good weather!
