Cottage Breakfast
(24" x 24", oil on canvas)

There is little more appetizing than fresh fruit first thing in the morning. This combination of cantaloupe and cherries served up simply on a white cloth makes for a bright start to the day... even if it is still dark outside!

Artist's Choice
(18" x 36", oil on canvas)

Sometimes I really enjoy doing a piece just for me; a piece featuring some of my favourite things from the past few months of work. While I do love my more spare compositions, it is a nice challenge to work with an abundance of colours, textures, shapes and sizes and make one cohesive statement.

In the Round
(16" x 16", oil on panel)

This composition is based on a good mix of round shapes. The various sizes and surface textures ensure there is no monotony, while the bright colours add a welcome aspect of liveliness to the basic circle-in-a-square theme.

Red Drama
(18" x 18", oil on canvas)

While I've had this bottle in my collection for years, it wasn't until I added the cork that I was able to make it work in a composition. I believe having that bit of light at the top defines the bottle and keeps it from being overly obscure. The chunky round shape seemed a good match for an equally chunky pomegranate.

Happy New Year and welcome to the 6th year of my Painting of the Week program. I hope to keep you entertained, if only for a brief moment, every Wednesday of the coming year. Please write if there is something you particularly like, dislike, or would like to see.
