Still Life Sketches

Still Life Sketches, each 6 x 6
.
I teach painting at the Austin Museum of Art and my still life class started this past Wednesday. One of my favorite things about it is collecting paintable objects and creating fun vignettes for my students to paint... And of course I always want to paint them myself! So this week, I came home and did these quick sketches.

  3. I'd love to learn to be
    so right on in a quick
    painting. It takes me
    some time. Your sketches are
    just fantastic.
