oil on board

I like finishing my paintings in one day, even if it takes me 8 or 9 hours, because then I am not as likely to get bogged down in worries and over thinking. These leeks just gave me too much to do for a one day piece, so this morning when I went back to them I tried my hardest to keep it feeling fresh.

Such beautiful strong, broad, loose brushwork--great color palette--love it. I checked out your website --love all your work.
Wonderful post! My paints are in front of me and my current project on the easel. I need to get off of the internet!
This is beautiful, Taryn -- you've really got a terrific ability to get your form, value and color down effectively with just a "steamlined" use of brushwork and color. I'm anxious to see more!
Beautiful light and color in this - wonderful work!
Thank you Cecelia, Mary Beth, Amy and Claire! It's so nice to have joined a site with such great artists who give such support.
I like the tension at the top of the painting where the leaves are sooo close to the edge,
I just LOVE your veggies...so real yet very painterly!
Oooh, I just had leeks last night! Love 'em - and love this painting, with it's confident strokes and dramatic perspective. Really nice!
I like how you handled the space at the top of the painting. I agree with the others. Great brush work. It's fun to look at. Hope to see them some day!
Love the richness of this painting. I can almost taste and smell the leeks. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
I love the light in all of your work. Soft and cool...very natural looking.
