New Painting finished!

Sweet. Took me long enough.

I am happy that things are starting to settle in here though and my work schedule allows me to create a home-schedule which has begun to show accomplishment. :)

I've stretched and primed a new surface for yet another painting which is pretty darn quick for me but I'm excited with my quick progress and hope to be able to attempt selling some prints in the near future.

The finished piece, Berry-Smoothy:

mmmmmmmmm, berry-licious.

hm, maybe I should make "Mmmmmm" the title of this whole series. :)
I really like how this one turned out. Probably because of the composition. I loved how the residue from the smoothy made interesting designs on side of the glass I had used. As well, the colours became really interesting when I actually got a chance to look at my photos close-up on my computer.
So far I really like my next piece as well. It's a close-up of soy-sauce in some olive oil. We'll see how that turns out.

I've also been working on a couple knitting projects. Playing around with small cables in order to make a relief-design. Some trees and skulls. I have a prototype of the one with trees on it. It's nearly finished but needs a lining and a strap. Still havn't decided if I want a shoulder strap or a longer one that would sling over the head and across the chest.

No pics of those yet, just havn't gotten around to it.

Not much else to get down here. Work's been a bit crazy, but manageable.
