In March 2008 I made the suprising discovery that I had a little artistic talent which had been lying dormant all my life. I started with simple still life subjects but as time went on I progressed to more complex subjects. The only medium I paint in is pastels which I love. They do tend to be messy but I love the immediacy of the work, involving no mixing with turps or water, just pure pigment directly applied and mixed right there on the paper. Carol Conrad

Garlic
I have been a little slow in posting paintings of late, it seems I paint them and it takes a couple of weeks (at least) for them to get photographed and posted in my blog. I don't do a lot of still life pictures but now and then I feel the urge to give it a go, as was the case with this one. It always seems that the photo's don't accurately reflect the painting. But it's close. This one is 11 x 14 on Richeson Pastel Board.
