One of the exercises that helped advance my paintings skills was doing a painting a day. Those were not larger than 6x8 so that a still life could be completed in thirty minutes or perhaps an hour. The other part of that exercise was to place the object(s) to be painted without a great deal of thought. For me, arranging and rearranging objects is simply putting off the main objective, so I mostly simply plunk something down, consider it and the lighting for a few moments.
This painting came about during one of those daily panting sessions many years ago.
