Still life with small cherry

Still life with bottle and apples

Having a bit of bad luck lately: last week I got the flu. It hit me rather accutely, and I fainted. I must have hit something (the ground?) because when I woke up again, lying on the sidewalk, I had a bruised rib and a concussion. So I spent last week in bed mainly, and still feeling a bit dizzy. I thought I'd post a work-in-progress therefore. I've been working on this painting (and a landscape) for about 2 weeks. Hope to finish it this or next week..
