Hi Rob, great to see a still life from you - and you can still paint it from life! The "softened" effect you have achieved really compliments the subject. Yes, a great winter warmer. Nice too if you cook it in a real chicken stock.
Lovely piece of work. Not your usual style but all the more exciting for that. The highlights and clever reflection are the things that make this an outstanding piece. love it.
We do share a lot of things beyond painting Rob! Homemade soup is a "stock" item on the Sherman winter menu too ....since I do all the cooking in our house!
Gray days in succession... really do get "Me" down. My answer to this problem is to make a big batch of soup... Scottish vegetable, potato/leek and mushroom... French Canadian split pea... or chicken noodle(from real chicken broth).
I sip it by the bowl while working under the bright light at my trusty easel!
Winter painting? Try a thermos of any of the above while out ...and it will give you determination and resolve to push forward.
And by the way... that still life is in itself... " very tasty morsel to warm the cockles of any cold heart! Beautifully done!

Yummy painting with lovely warm light and the reflection in the knife is great, Rob!
even the brushwork is comforting: beautifully executed!

Too hot for soup here, but what a great still life Rob! Love the light reflecting on the knife.

cozy indeed
thanks celeste

hi liz
for me soup is also away of eating vegetables i don't like,
The reflection on the knife is amazingly done Rob! Very good play of lights and shadows!
Yes!! This arrangement of vegies is like a landscape with a warm carrot center and a knife like a reflective pool. love it!!
This is a lovely piece, Rob. Very inviting and most certainly something to take the edge off a cold day!
i diodn't see it like that miss umbrella but yes it is not the subject i paint,it is the light on it,i like to capture
glad to hear it worked for you don
cheers!
hi sadia
the knive was fun to do
i got the contrasts by placing the whole scene in a box with a spotlight on it
colours are great in this- nice composition too
RYan
thank you ryan
glad to hear you like it!
Haven't seen many other still life paintings in your collection. Well done, and nice sentiments about the soup.
Excellent artwork, any thanks!
