Sweet Treats

My latest painting is using the same reference as Sweet Valentine, but changing the dish from its original crystal to a pottery one - and using some new reds in my palette.  Winsor Red Deep, Perm Rose and Quin Rose. I'm quite happy with how they've worked together.

Sweet Treats


Arches 140 Rough, 15" x 11"

Its not normal for me to use a same reference so quickly after the last one, but I wanted to keep my painting eye in! 
You see, for the last three weeks I have been taking a creative writing course - and the learning, the notes and the practice have all kept me busy. Two more weeks and I'll have finished with it and life will return a little more towards normal, with a portion of time handed over to writing as well as art! 

Hope you've all been well and will catch up with you soon! 
love xx
