Missed a day

I was so busy yesterday, I didn't get a chance to blog.  I am having another week where I am out most days, so fitting in painting and blogging is hard.


This is another beginning, in a red-violet - yellow-green complementary colour scheme.  These are colours I don't normally use, so it is a challenge.

The little purple-pink shape is destined to be a fig.  I love the shape, texture and colour of figs but not the taste, so I don't buy them very often.  I like the way the fig and the vase are leaning in towards each other.
Hopefully I will get more done to this piece later this week.
