First pass work in progress...

Well the live video appears to work, some you’ll be able to see just how SLOWLY I work…;) This is the painting I’m working on, I took this with the webcam, it not a great image, I’ll take one with a proper camera soon. Anyway things are progressing; I’ve got the first pass of the stone in and am starting to block in the fennel bulbs. I’m trying to keep the tones fairly muted at this stage, to keep the painting as calm and subtle as possible…once this first painting pass is done I’ll work into the highlights and shadows and hopefully that’ll leave me with a nice looking still life that’s not quite as ‘in your face’ as some of the ones I’ve done in the past :)

More paint....less beer ;-)

Actually this is starting to come together. I definitely think the best time to broadcast is during the day. I tried broadcasting this evening and it was incredibly slow...I can only imagine its because the US has woken up and switched on ustream....

good to see you work though...I'm glad I'm not the only one who pulls silly faces
