Cabbage and Eggplant


I am getting the hang of this cabbage thing, both the painting part and the compositional part. The size of the images are better suited to the space in this one. This 10 inch square is starting to feel more normal, not so scary. Alas, the cabbage is getting old and turning yellow so I may have to prune for tomorrow, and I will try a larger brush to force simplification.

Below is a little video shot by my friend Jenel Looney of a puppet project we have been doing. She did such a great job with it, I felt like a movie star.

    Great job on the eggplant. They can be tricky. Love the background color.

    ok, so you know I whined, stomped my feet, and complained about you being done with the pansy paintings. However, I'm so glad you did, I love your new cabbage series!!
