having too much fun

Egg V
5x7 acrylic on hardboard panel
available on my eBay
collection of Erin McCusker

Just tickled with this one- I love it how every now and then you can be painting and painting, just trying to get down whats in front of you and not sure if its working at all.... and then you sit back and somehow its just there. The bubbles in the bottom of the shell, especially, but also the way the puddles of egg white kind of tier, and the way the yolk is partially submerged, you sit back and it already exists there on the canvas, and you leave it alone for a while and come back and refine it, make it brighter and truer, and then it really is right, you know? Great feeling.
