"Gimme Shelter"

"Gimme Shelter" - 8" x 10" oil on canvasboard

There! I think I did 5 paintings this week...all 'still life's' in the shadowbox. This one came out a little more realistic than the rest. It may have something to do with the new tunes I can listen to?
I want to go with something bigger now, but what did I do? Toned a new "little" canvas. These small ones are habit forming. 'A painting a day' is a piece of cake at this size.
Tomorrow a couple of us in NCKAA are working on new 'title' cards for our organization, to list particulars about our artwork in shows. So a trip to Dispatch, then Downs with Jan to Gary's studio, then Jan and I are having lunch in Downs! Yippee! I hardly ever get out, can you tell?

Finished this one yesterday. It was fun! The problem with painting some food, is that it wilts before your eyes. These three are being used in one more painting, don't know if they will look much like fresh strawberries today. I'll have to see what I can do.
Cold and foggy this morning. There was a frost on the picnic table. Brr...
