Easter Surprise - A Work in Progress

With tomorrow being Good Friday the Still Life Group at KAGS is doing an Easter theme.

We had a number of Easter bunnies including a Lindt gold chocolate bunny and a Beatrix Potter Peter Rabbit. We also had various baskets, coloured Easter eggs, and some flowers.

I didn't like all of the pieces and decided not to use a number of them. To make a more interesting composition I moved some of them around and added some extra eggs and cut flowers. With fewer things to draw I was able to have more time to paint.














I put down the base yellow for the forsythias, the bottom part of the pot with the calla lily and a couple of the coloured Easter eggs.

I will post this painting at a later date once more of it is completed.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and enjoy the artwork. I hope you will return often.
