oil on board

I had thought that I might be finished with painting vegetables for a while, but that was before I started helping out at a local CSA farm, and bringing home freshly picked, organic produce each week. I couldn't resist painting these turnips. I had to begin with the leaves, knowing they would wilt quickly. By the end of the day even the turnips had changed- they had shrunk and shifted.

This is lovely Taryn, and what a cool thing to be helping out at the CSA with fresh new painting material every week!
You paint form so masterfully, Taryn. I can't wait to see your paintings in person when the DPP show comes to Gallerie 13 in July. Will you be there for the reception - if so, I hope I get to meet you!
Excellent Taryn. I'm starting to see veggies in a whole new way, your way!
Love your use of color. This is a real beauty Taryn.
You did a wonderful job. Love the way you rendered the shape of your turnips
Thanks for your nice comments! I really don't always mean to simplify quite so much, but when things wilt and start to shrivel I have to! Claire, I am not sure yet about attending, but I'm thinking it over- thanks.
