I was asked to do a mini-workshop last Sunday afternoon at my favorite Montrose, PA restaurant, Summerhouse. The brunch people lingered to watch and I set up this still-life in a corner and blocked it in. I brought it back to the studio to finish and I think it a nice way to start spring; with a painting I like. I love the colors. I relied on a few eggs for spring symbolism - fertility. I used one of my own framed paintings for a background element that provided a bit of reflection and depth.I am still working on this painting, but it won't change much. I see no big problems...some small areas may be improved a bit over the next week before it gets framed. 10 x 10 image size.

SPECTACULAR RENDERING OF THE FLOWERS--THE COLORING AND THEIR JAUNTY POSITIONING. EXCEPTIONAL COMPOSITION--I'M INSPIRED TO PAINT A STILL LIFE.
Lovely painting!
Wow, Rodrica! This is so beautiful; I love seeing what the artist brings into a composition. I can see this hanging so beautifully in a big, sunny, crisp farm kitchen. Such a feeling of homey-ness and of a bygone era...
This is a great painting. Loved the colors and the way you positioned the eggs. A painting to be proud of.
"Jaunty"...yes that is the perfect word to describe those sunflowers.. Love the blues and purples, too.
Very nice painting. I like the energy!
The entire presentation is yummy and interesting. Great piece Rodrica.
Beautiful painting, Rodrica. Love your use of complements.
