Still Life Paintings 2018

I haven't posted to my blog since earlier this year but I plan to post more regularly! There's so much I want to share regarding plein air adventures, books, technique, materials, and the art I love.

2018 has kept me busy painting landscapes, portrait studies, and still lifes. Recently I counted all of the paintings I made since January 1 and it's over 100! This is the most I've ever painted in one year. Since February I had painted a number of still lifes. Here are some of the paintings along with one from 2016. All of these were painted from life using props from my collection.  I posted them in chronological order from oldest to recent. Some paintings are still available through Eggleston Goetze Art Advisory
