daily painting practice 107 - Candy Bowl

I was invited to show at the first Nebraska Artist Artsale and Exposition. A new group working to build Omaha as an art center in the midwest.
I was fortunate enough to sell two at the show and trade two with a wonderful Omaha artist Lori Stevens. Lori does amazing carpet artwork. Her custom designed rugs are beautiful. So we are getting a rug designed for our bedroom. How cool is that?
Daily paintings on display. One good thing to come out of doing a small show like this. All my daily paintings are now framed and ready to sell and show again.
I started on a pre-toned masonite panel. The warm red/brown was put on several days ago and dry. It worked perfectly as the starting point for this painting.

This weekend was so busy getting ready for the show, doing the art show, and having company on Sunday. Needless to say I didn't get a daily painting done. So this morning I had to quickly set up and get yesterday's painting done today. Luckily we had all this candy left over.
