Journal: Garlic and Shallots

I'm back home in Vermont , and chill winds blowing a few snowflakes are back, too. For my "warm-up" painting today I found these remnants from last year's garden.

Really like that you have the viewer looking down on the subject. Plus the shading is great. Very good indeed:) (oh dear, now I sound like a school teacher and should be scoring you 10/10) - sorry Susan, if it sounds a bit like that.

Not at all, Ann. Always hard to verbalize why we like a painting. That "looking down" is usually my perspective in a still life. I like the geometry of it. And I like bowls, and a bowl is most "bowl-like" seen this way, I think.
