There is something about painting an egg that pulls the traditional out of me.  I had to add the writing on the egg.  It looks like Korean letters.

This painting took about forty hours to complete.  I've got three more medium sized paintings of NYC that I will finish for the show that is coming up fast.  Plus as many gourmandises I can paint.  My blurb catalogues arrived today and the many 750 invites I ordered are in the mail.  Now were rolling down hill.

The market is autumn.  Mushrooms, figs, grapes and pomegranates.  I love the ruby red inside. It reminds me of Salvador Dali's ruby lipped pin.

133 Haribo Tagada



Haribo Tagada
oil on gessoboard
15x15cm (6x6 inches)

It was nice to catch a ray of sunshine in my studio for about an hour.  The direct sunlight makes lovely contrast, much more inspiring than electric lighting. Note that only the sac and shadow are painted, the background is just the color from the defective tube of Ivory black that I bought.  It tends towards a red-purple.  I'll be sorry when the tube is finished because I don't know what color to look for.  The color is close to mixing normal Ivory black and cadmium red but the consistency is different.  Ivory black is smooth like soft butter and cadmium red is pasty.  This defective tube of Ivory black that I'm using is neither and even if I mix the latter two the consistency is just not the same.

This will be for sale at the Grand Marché d'Arte Contemporain 28 October-1 November 2011 - Bastille, Paris.
STAND 54 under the tent.  If you need tickets let me know.  There are over 1000 artists exhibition and the quality is pretty good.
