I am trying to do a painting a weekagain. Completed this painting today, a rainy day outside and nice and friendly in front of the fire. I can feel I’m rusty working on a painting. Very impatient and hurried. But I am gliding back into working mode again and inspiration is beginning to open its eyelids, albeit slowly.
Oil on canvas, 30x 25cm

Sounds like a lovely way to spend a rainy day. This is nice, not quite that light loose touch that I see in your watercolors but I think it’s the difference in the mediums…this has the look of a cold rainy day…isn’t that funny…
Love that title Ronell. At first I thought we were getting a recipe of carrots cooked in oil 🙂 But this is better, bright beautiful colors! And ol no less.
So rich, Ronnel — Beautifully done! I LOVE your use of contrasts and your painterly approach even in oils!!!
bold, juicy colors that make everything you paint so appetizing to eat… a classic Ronell! i love it.
Oh my gosh……. your oils are just as beautiful as your watecolors. Simply amazing. I love this.
This looks like the fire! Sparks of flame, burning logs, glowing darkness behind it all! Lovely.
Clever title – I expected to see them there carrots frying in a pan!!! Whats the connection to food of late??? Good to see you working in this medium – it has a unique style.
I love it when you get your oils out, Ronell. This is a bouquet of sensory excitement and I love the way you’ve used the complementary colours to entice my eye around the composition.
One a week is something to look forward to.
It seems I can touch them! Very good.
thank you for visiting and leaving such kind comments!
