I don't do too many still life's, but I love them. 
  Seems like I have so many thing around to paint.
  I love the Old Masters dark against light, but then I think about the flowers and how bright and happy I love to make them.
  I have to have light and lots of sun. I don't think I could ever live where I didn't have sun shine everyday.
  It warms the earth and it warms the soul.
  But Still life"s are fun to do.
  I intend to do more, but have a couple of commissions to do first.
  Have a great day.
