(oil on gessoboard; 6"x 6")
I set up this little "portrait" on the edge of a table. This was challenging to paint but I tried not to get too caught up in detail and I'm happy with the way it came out, especially the shadow. It's so easy to overwork a painting of an object that has a lot of detail, but I was feeling very relaxed when painting this - it was a Sunday afternoon and Jake was doing his homework and I was painting and we were just chatting, and it all came together.
