Still life with bowl of apples

Today this little commissioned painting. I usually don't depict objects smaller than they are in real life (more or less) so this one was rather interesting to paint.. You can watch this painting being painted on youtube

Still life with vase and red box

Woking on a number of larger still life paintings again, trying to encorporate some looseness of touch in the paintings. This one has rather cool colors, due to the particularities of the light in my new studo in the bottelstraat. The light on the subject tends to be a bit bluer than the light on the easle, making the colors of the painting seem a bit too cool for my taste. Need to fix this problem somehow. (Ideas are welcome.)

Still life with tea box

Here I am again. Just finished a commissioned painting, so time for some smaller works again. Tried out a more fluent touch today similar to Singer-Sargent, resulting in this atmospheric still life painting...
