READY FOR BREAKFAST by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Ready for Breakfast'
Oil 8 x 8
Available

Initially I wanted to paint this because it was a
white on white study, but I soon started having fun
just painting the spaces around the eggs as they
nestled in the dish. There's so much subtle color in
this, the warms and cools in both the dish and the eggs.
Definitely a painting that taught me a few things!

Summerhouse-a pastel by Rodrica Tilley

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.
