#140, "Eggs-etera", oil, 6" x 6"
Guess what? I discovered I can post ahead. So while I'm in Mexico you will be getting this post and the next one. I adore painting raw eggs and shells. What I learned while painting this one is that the yolks are actually a yellow shade of gray. The making of gray is the use of all 3 primaries plus white. Grays are getting very exciting for me and I will be using them more and more. It thrills me that if I just paint shapes and values (and don't think about eggs) that I end up with a painting with eggs and broken shells. This painting really tickles me. The Ray for the Day is "Eggs-etera".

Thank you Stuart.
I just found your blog and I'm really enjoying it. I am just learning to paint. Iteresting thoughts on grey. My dad, a great artist told me to make grey you mix white and blue to the intensity that you want, and then keep adding orange until it turns to grey.

People are very happy with the quality and design of the sale as it is very important when you decide to buy a shoe.Franklin and Marshall T-shirtsYou might be very happy to know that beside the quality the design of the shoe is also very excellent that can surprise you like most of the other people.
