So, as the day wore on, I did get back into the zone. Here are the four pieces from the rest of the day:
Merlot At The Madison, © 2021, work in progress (click on image for larger view)
Not bad! I finally got the odd purple-blue color right. And the neck of the bottle is more visible.
Profiteroles, © 2021, work in progress (click on image for larger view) I don't know why I love this painting so much, but I do.
A Quiet Evening In Cambridge, © 2021, work in progress (click on image for larger view) As with the Merlot piece, I finally got the bluish sweater to work. How many times have I painted it in the past? At least twenty? But now I like it and I think the light on the shoulder works well.
Last but not least, fun with the pinpoints of light on the sputnik globes. I'll get back to this tomorrow.
