Jason, I am glad to have been introduced to your work via comments, you will definitely be listed as one of my new favorite artists. I too have a love for peppers, bones and Georgia O'Keeffe. Your skull paintings are my favorite. You really captured the essence of the southwest. Great Job!
Real nice Jason. My favorite part is the transition from light to shadow on the left side of that fabric. Excellent job on the cup too. O.K., now I'll be picky. There are two highlights in the shadow that I wish were slightly darker so they would not pop out so much. Hope you don't mind that I said that. I really do like this one a lot.
I am in agreement about loose work, or rather I would say that tight detail or loose bravura, for it to be 'right' requires a tremendous amount of attention and practice.
I am a Seattle based artist who paints and sketches the world around him. I am primarily a figurative painter (please checkout my website!).
I paint everyday, and my blog showcases the small paintings I work on to sharpen my eye, loosen my brush, and to grow my skills.

Jason, nice composition. Your colors give it such a serene feel.
This is great, Jason. You handled the patterned cloth beautifully--it just dances through and livens up the whole field.

Sherry,
Thank you!
Don,
Thanks to you too...
Kim,
Thanks for stopping by!
Frank,
Thanks!
Not nit picky at all-- I think you're entirely right about the reflection in shadow side.
I appreciate the feedback!
Nice work here Jason, I love how detailed this feels yet is still loose.
It's my opinion that this type of work is more difficult than very tight detailed work. Masterful work.
Thanks Casey!

There are no shortcuts.
^ Words of wisdom.
I *love* the colors in this, so harmonious. That black fabric really feels like black fabric.
