Everyday in May # 5 Choi Sum

Choi sum ( 菜心) means vegetable heart in Cantonese.



I started this in the morning before I went to work, almost done and left feeling happy about it. So now , I know better than to start a painting, go to work, and leave my choi sum (菜心) out in temperatures of around 30 degrees...come home at 7pm and try to finish it............not only does the light change but it wilts, moves and nine hours later you've lost the veggie vibe. I suppose it's a good lesson and a step towards a looser way of painting. It's also made me realise how little good working light we have in our place, but made me appreciate the natural daylight we have.
Thanks for your comments  so far everyone, have a lovely weekend.


(Thank-you Shirley , I've never thought about a video.....will get back to you )
