Jason, great work! Love how you treated the plastic, really good stuff here. This is one of my favorites of yours, the contrast draws the eye in and keeps it there. Good, good stuff.
Perhaps you could post a few shots of a piece in progress for us?
Casey, Thanks for stopping by! I generally don't have the presence of mind to shoot progress shots on the little ones, but there are some progress shots of how I work available here: On the easel
There are a bunch of step by step pieces there from the last couple of years...
Nicely done Jason. I like how you shake up the subject matter so much. Great way to not get "Stale" so to speak. Great work on the cellophane wrapper and color choices.
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.

I'm starting to sound like a fangirl.
Love this one. Lots.
Thank you, Ms. Boo.
Artists need fans!
Jason, nice composition. You did a great job getting all these monochromatic colors to pop out.

Frank,
Thanks for the kind comment. Sometimes it's a stretch (picking what to paint), but I'm seeing it pay dividends...
I *love* this one. The reflected color of the crackers inside the cellophane sleeve--brilliant!
Some lousy crackers in cellophane?! Why aren't you painting something significant like a can of cat food!!!
You nailed that! Great!
Kathryn,
Thanks! I can't take credit for the orange reflection though--- it's just what was there...
David,
'Cause the cat eats dry food? :)
I will work on elevatin' my subject matter when I get back from the supermarket.
Mary,
Thanks!
Jason, this is terrific. The plastic is so convincingly rendered while remaining loose, vibrant and full of movement.
Great painting Jason...I particularly love how you handled the cellophane wrapper!
Jason,
Super Duper! Love it!
Don,
Thank you-- I probably ot a little lucky with this one. :)
D.
Thanks!
Jennifer,
Merci beaucoup!
No one has commented about that cracker! A finer cracker I have not seen. Suggested, not rendered. Reminds me of Sargent's old woven chair.
