My first two oil still life paintings. They are quite small and presented quite a challenge for me.
The left hand one is an apostle jug the original of which is quite a bland grey colour, so I gave myself permission to add the influence of light in the tones. The green jug and cream cup are from different eras and, strictly speaking, would not have been used together in their respective eras. I found the shape of the cup handle a little difficult to get right but I am happy with the result. My next one will include the same cup but with a different jug. Watch this space! Assuming there is anyone reading this!!!!
