I had so much fun painting this one. I was at the market and saw these two little tomatoes and just had to buy them. I took a lot of reference photos so you'll probably see more of these in the future.
Oil on a 6x6 inch deep stretched canvas, sides painted.
The Santa Barbara Courthouse is one of my favorite subjects to paint. I love the color of the shadows on such a white building. I got up extra early this morning to paint, because the rest of my day with be spent in LA, watching the filming of the Glee finale! My best friend acquired free tickets, it's going to be awesome!
This is one of my favorite places to eat during a day at the beach. I painted this one small because I wasn't sure how it would turn out, now I'm really sad I didn't just paint it larger.
I'm trying to find other things that I can add into my still life paintings. I think a trip to Goodwill is in order, maybe I'll find a fantastic red vase or some interesting glass pieces. But for today this old clock was the best I could find.
