Why Me?

Why Me?, 8 x 10

I messed around today with high contrast in the background--this is supposed to be a white napkin on a black table....doesn't it feel a bit like the bowl, napkin, and knife are floating in space?! I didn't think so until I saw it in photograph form. Don't you think it's a perspective issue, rather than the contrast? The downfalls of a fast painting!

Hi Julie,

I've missed seeing your blog this week, because I was overwhelmed with schoolwork and had a show running all last weekend in my house. This is lovely. You don't have any issues. Relax and give us more paintings when you want to. I love your work.
