I love figs and I love farmers markets so I am working on painting what I love.  I also love doing it in my head  which just isn't the same as doing them in the studio and on the canvas.  So today it was a large fig on this canvas and it was great fun to abstract it but also keep the essence of the fig.  I can hardly wait to get back out there tomorrow.  I have a whole box of luscious figs to inspire me.  Yeah!

This is the start of a new painting.  Watch this painting develop.  I am struggling with what to paint but I know when this is the case one just has to get in the studio and start painting so that is what I am doing.  Tomorrow will definitely be studio day and I am looking forward to seeing how this painting will develop.  I see some very interesting things in this painting as it is so I want to be careful to not loose them.
