Chicken or the Egg 6 x 8 Oil on Panel 2018

A rare apple bird egg

October 28, 2018

I bought some cortlands to make a pie. I think Cortlands make the best pies. I was fussing about in the studio and found this nest. So it just seemed like the right thing to do. I put an apple in it. Then I forgot it. I was cleaning the palette and saw the apple in the nest. I smelled it too. Time to paint . I painted it yesterday. Just stood up and painted it over the day. Scratching and brushing brushing and scratching until it was done. I think. Pretty much a neutral palette excepting the apple wihich has a lot of Raw color. Tomorrow Pie.
