Wonderful light! You go from painting almost no color ( which reminded me of Wyeth) to this colorful gem. Was that an artistic reaction to the last painting?
Peter, yes, I think it is a reaction to the last painting. Although it happens both ways... sometimes I feel like there's too much color going on in recent work so I'll switch my focus on muted colors. Keeps things interesting. I appreciate the comment about Wyeth, I admire his work greatly.
Carol, I think you would agree with me when I say sometimes the the hardest part about painting is just having the patience to finish what you've started:)

Oh man, I know how hard this must have been. This is really impressive. Great painting!
Chris, Thanks!

Or having the willpower to not eat all those jelly bellies before you're done.
