Egg sketch


9/23: Egg sketch, oil on canvas panel, approx. 3x5 in.

It felt weird not doing anything from observation on Saturday so I did this in about 10 minutes or so with some colors (brighter than usual) that were already mixed on my palette. Or perhaps it was 15-20 minutes after some fudging along the top edge of the egg to smooth the shape - which made it a little less "furry," otherwise it's a pretty spontaneous and fresh egg study. Who would have thought I'd keep going back to eggs?
