Still-life is not so much my thing



While working this week, I had a number of moments of ugh and sweating in the heat of course.  As the papers blew around the room from the breeze, I finally decided to just get started.

I used the "frame" we were given to zoom in on just a piece of one of the still-life set-ups.  The choices were a vase with local flowers and leaves along with a lantern, a bowl of some local fruit from the tree and a table with books on one side and a breakfast scene on the other.  As you can see, I went for the books with the flowers.

I did not like it so much as I was working on it, but at the end of class when we set our easels for all to see and I stepped back from my work, I actually found I liked it.  What do you think?
