A Good Egg

Remember when people referred to someone as a "good egg"? What the heck was that all about?
Anyway I did this in my Carol Marine class. She really knows how to paint eggs. This one is sold but there will be more of this subject. I had to hide all my saved eggshells in the back of the refrigerator so Don wouldn't throw them away ;)

Very nice Mary! We have not gotten to eggs yet but I did paint a pear about 8 times in a row yesterday! She is really a good teacher and I am enjoying myself in her workshop and feel like I am learning a lot. Your work is wonderful and I especially love this one!

That is just plain gorgeous. Seriously. Love those colors! :) Hiding your eggshells *snort* that's too funny. My hubby would toss them too!

Love the brushstrokes and colors in this. Wondering what the little round red things are? Berries?

Stephanie Berry said...

I love your fearless colors in this. Carol painted a raw egg at our workshop here in ME--she makes it look so easy.

Great color!!! No wonder it's sold! :)

Carol, they're cherry tomatoes. Not very well defined though...

Leovi said...

Beautiful. I like the colors and style with great plasticity.

Dana Cooper said...

Amazing color in this Mary...I'm not surprised it sold!
Enjoy your holidays!!

Wow, I love how colorful this is.

FCP said...

Love, love, love this! Very powerful colors and brushstrokes! (and I have to laugh about hiding the eggshells--that sort of thing sounds way too familiar at my house)

Jennifer Bellinger said...

Wonderful colors..you had to see these directly, don't think you could make them up...that's trusting your eyes! Excellent!
