The client wanted more added to the painting ... see previous post .... commission work is always challenging and this is not my typical style of work ... it has metamorphosized into a bit of me and a bit of my client ...

COMMISSION PAINTING IN THE COLLECTION OF JACKIE LEGER

This is my latest painting for a friend. Jackie wanted something for her dining room, which involved baguettes, wheat, grapes and a basket ... VOILA ... she loved it!!

I have also been asked to donate a painting to the upcoming RBC silent auction which will raise funds for the IWK Childrens Hospital in Halifax.

NEXT PAINTING SUBJECT, ORCHID

I will attempt painting this beautiful orchid, that blooms in my kitchen window ... I asked a friend, Alberto, what would he like for his new office space in Toronto ... and an Orchid is what he prefers in a floral painting! I will post my work in progress ... stay tuned ...
