I'm going to post at least two paintings a week...minimum. Most will be 5"x 7" to keep things small, but like the first one...they will vary. I'll be including a link to Ebay to bid on these. Any that don't sell will be designated on this blog, and can be purchased for the minimum of $100.00

I've been an artist since age 5, when I remember drawing an airplane better than my older brother. It was a bi-wing with a propeller, (not that I'm that old... it was 1957 and it was a racing plane), and it was encouraging because up until then, it was the only thing I could remember doing better. I kept at it, and now nearly 50 years later I'm still trying to improve my creative process. Now I realize you never get better than anyone else... just more unique to your own style, and become the best painter you can be.

Mick, these three foodie paintings are beautiful. I especially like the apple pie and I am surprised that that is the one you did from a photograph the colours are so rich. Fantastic.
What a great treat getting to see three paintings posted this morning! I love 'em all!
This is a tough blog to look at when one is on a diet!
Beautiful Work!

Thanks everyone,
What's worst than viewing them when you are hungry, is trying to paint them when you're hungry. I take photos of all my set-ups and paint from them being displayed on my flatscreen, but sometimes I'm so impatient to get the shot that I eat my props before I explore all the angles and lighting situations.
Thanks for commenting,
Mick
