More Cranberries and a Bushel Basket of Snow

"Holiday Pear and Cranberries" 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord
SOLD
Big snow a comin' tonight!  Up to 12" for our area west of Denver.  So got my little self into the studio today and painted what else?  More cranberries..I love these little critters they are so cute.

I was trying to paint a little differently today....picking up a brush full of paint and laying it down then leaving it alone.  That didn't work out so well....it looks alot like my other technique of smushing it around 'til I'm happy. 

I'm happy!
