onions sketch




"onions "

inspired by a wonderful article in " the artist" magazine march 2010 Geometric forms  by Hilary Page on introduction to massing with an onion demonstration.....................
i painted this quickly whilst waiting for the water to boil for pasta .... you can see where i had to stop painting and cook !

Simpatica situazione, penso a quando anch'io sto con i pennelli in mano e contemporaneamente devo badare alle pentole... Mi succede + spesso con il computer, a volte il rischio di bruciare il cibo diventa alto... Ciao e buon fine settimana.

This is gorgeous! I love the colors of your palette, and the luminous quality and filminess of this is so attractive. I'll have to seek out that article--I think I have that magazine and haven't read it yet.
