It would be dishonest of me not to tell you how challenging Rob's palette is after using earth tones for so long. But I am determined to give it a go.

So the painting I started above has metamorphosed into what I am calling "The Wild Fruit Woman". Since Rob had natural and artificial light on this model - he did this on purpose - I thought I would have fun doing two things, one, giving his skin colors a go, but also using the "colorist" palette to the fullest with nothing other than fruit! I have also had fun giving a wax medium a try in the actual fruit painting.

Here is an update, as I say - give it a giggle, for I can't tell you how much fun this has been to paint.

I am not sure of the number of you that got to take in one of Rob's workshop demo's at the PSOA, but he is awesome... and lucky me - I am traveling to Ireland with him this September!
