back to basics

egg in a cup

4"x4"

oil on board

It's been a long time since I painted in oils so I felt the need to get back to basics. Painting an egg is about as basic as one can get. I put it in a ceramic egg cup. It felt so good to mix oils and spread paint. I forgot to add a shadow. My reference was sitting on my granite counter and I didn't see much of a shadow and then forgot about it. Ah well....
