Egg Yolk, No. 1

Eggs must be my "comfort food." Though I've painted them numerous times (and am usually pleased with the results), I've labeled this as "number 1" because it is the first yolk I've done as a daily OIL painting.

No lectures--just a gentle reminder that the Great American Smokeout is Thursday, November 19th. I will donate 50% of the final purchase price of this painting to the American Cancer Society, the official sponsor of this event. Best wishes to all participants (including a few of my loved ones) tomorrow!

Pomegranate Seed

I'm fond of the title for this painting. Who cares about the bohemoth pomegranates when that poor little seed is alone on the ground?

Since these little devils are $2.95 EACH at my grocery store (and I can't figure out how to enjoy them properly), I only bought one. I used an apple as a stand-in for the second pomegranate, then just switched them around as needed. (Guess what subject will be painted tomorrow? Might as well make the most of my investment!)

I still can't figure out how to eat these things--the seeds are so "seedy." I think I'll stick with using them in Christmas decorations as they do in Colonial Williamsburg each year.
