All My Eggs In One Basket

original watercolor on paper 6x6 Reserved
Hi Everyone,

I'm continuing to work on my 6x6 series for the Randy Higbee contest.  I'm going to put my entries to a vote and see what you all have to say.

My Mom bought this crystal basket at a thrift store and made the mistake of letting me borrow it.  She may never get it back because I just love it.  With this still life I wanted to paint a contemporary twist to a traditional Easter basket.  I always love a limited palette and of course a little dramatic lighting doesn't hurt either.

I will be posting a little more frequently because the contest deadline is the 21st of this month so I have to get busy and get some 6x6's under my belt, so stay tuned!!!

Thanks everyone for stopping by and I Love, Love, Love your comments.  They give me motivation and support and lots of similes.  So I want to thank each and everyone of you because you make my day:)  Have a Great Weekend!!
