This is the first of my 5x7 challenges. Because of my teaching schedule and entering juried shows I have been getting frustrated that I did not have the time to just paint for sheer joy and learning. With a 5x7 canvas I figure I can set up whatever I like and finish in a short amount of time. I painted my favorite pot and a fading turnip to see if it could be done. It was so rewarding I am ready to start an entire series.
