Spoon - quick study I have been looking at other artists' daily paintings and wondering how on earth they get a whole painting done in just one day!! Of course style of painting makes a huge difference to speed and so I needed to loosen up a bit. This is also a very small painting 9" x 4", which meant that it only took about one and a half hours. It was an interesting exercise which I will try again but next I want to paint this larger and in my usual style for a comparison.
