Still Life

Day two with Stacy, the Denham Middle School student i am working with through the Spark Program. Today's theme was to work from a still life. I asked her to choose from my collection of acrylic paint, a yellow, a red, and a blue to work with. In addition, titanium white was available. It wasn't as free an experience as last week's session with housepaint but she worked diligently to create the following work which is reminiscent of the work of Giorgio Morandi, one of my favorite painters.


































Since we have to make up a session and since we are both on Spring break, we are planning on a trip to SFMOMA this Thursday. We can spend more time than the usual allotted 1.5 to 2 hours.
