I fell in love with this Chinese Health Balls, (for exercising the hand). The embroidered box and the shiny metal balls just begged to be painted. The painting, I feel, is much better than the photograph you see. This one is up for purchase/bid at: << Purchase/Bid >> <= Click link here to read more about the art and sale. Thanks for visiting. Enjoy!
Well, I think the title of this post is appropriate, for this Turkish beauty. However, I am not a big fan of the actual dessert: “Turkish Delight”. I find it too gummy and the taste sort of sits orthogonal to the expectations of my taste buds. Of course, some tastes are cultivated and almost all cultures have a one-off that other cultures find obtuse. To each their own!

Gouache is technically an opaque version of watercolor, however it handles more like oil and acrylic. I often use it for its portability and ease of clean-up. so it is a great way to get in my practice for oil.
