Coffee with a Doll
This morning the coffee pot and cup proposed
their intent to be a still life. Others noted a lack of interest drawing or
painting only the two. They wanted more life and excitement for the still life
today. A couple of oranges were suggested. There were a few in the studio
waiting to be interviewed. Then the doll showed up, out of nowhere, as dolls
always seem to do, and of course, got the part.
Those artists not mesmerized by the doll,
took the oranges and a bottle of wine and created their own setting, in another
part of the studio.
I of course stayed with the doll, mainly for
the potential title.
But in time the doll wasn’t as colorful as
expected. I admit my loyalty was tested. I ended up drawing the “Wine and
Oranges” too.
14”x 17” Pastel on sanded Bristol paper
are both (the one of the last post) as always beautifull Anthony, this one I like in a special way because I love cofee :-) and the metal colours has always fascinated me
ReplyDeleteThank you. The love of coffee does have some pull.
