My Desktop
6x8" oil on canvas board. $45. Available here
This one is from a while back- an arrangement of stuff that had gathered on my desktop. I used to use the same desk for everything- computer, eating dinner, painting still lifes. It would get horrendously cluttered, and it was hard to do anything properly. Thankfully I now have a separate art table for painting, so there is less chaos.

Not Quite Oranges
5x7" acrylic on canvas board. $40. Available here
These little orange fruits are just sold as "easy peelers" so I'm not sure what particular species of citrus they are. But they look great accompanying my little copper jug- lovely warm colours that really make the greens pop!

Here's another study of that copper jug, playing with yet another patterned fabric!

Copper, Oranges and Leaves
5x7" acrylic on canvas board. $40. Available here
I love this leaf-patterned fabric, it adds so much interest to the arrangement. This is the smaller of my two copper jugs, much shorter and slimmer. It sits nicely alongside the orange wedges.
If you look closely you'll notice I'd already started eating one of the slices. Sometimes temptation is too much when setting up a composition.

Copper
8x10" acrylic on canvas board. $65. Available here
I bought this little jug in a charity shop a while back. I love trying to capture all of the colours and lights reflected in the copper surface. It has a great silhouette as well! I'm surprised I haven't used it more often in paintings.

Shopping Day
6x6” oil on canvas board. SOLD
Here's an older still life that I forgot to post here. I went out on a 'charity shop crawl' looking for bits and pieces to paint, and picked up some nice little vases, saucers and bits of glassware. But I was most fond of this tiny copper jug. The green item is glass, I am not sure what it is for, but it casts nice shadows across the surface when the light shines through it.
