Farmers Market #21- sketch




Baskets at Farmers Market

8x6in oil on canvas panel $125.

Day 11

Artist Note.
I taught all day today and this was a  35 minute knife painting
at the end of the day. - from a photo.
The lettering was done with a brush plus some of the highlights.
Fast and sketchy.

Had problems with Blogger today so making this short.
Do you think they did not like me telling everyone not to

Thanks for all the great  comments.  I am enjoying trying
to get to see everyone's posts. So MANY wonderful
painters in the blog-sphere. Very inspiring.

  4. Thirty-five minutes? Obviously you can create a masterpiece in a very short period of time. Your market series suit you and your style very well.

    Yeah....blogger got you...nsa, via, fbi, has, you name it...we're in the crosshairs.

  6. I have commented on many blogs,have not typed in numbers, so what you say is true! Thanks for passing it along.
    Your painting is gorgeous and has so much energy. I love the chilies and the stacks of produce. It's hard to believe it only took you 35 minutes!

  8. Very nice painting, Julie and I'm glad you shared the time you spent! It looks like you knew where you were going before you started.

    I linked to your blog today. I used your glass technique yesterday and it was fabulous; thank you for sharing. I posted some photos of the process while I tried out a few changes for a background.
