2024 in Pisticci…..painting cabbage….

I was invited to go to the local market again today and I bought the most beautiful red/purpley onion as well as an amazing silvery, grey,purple cabbage. There was also some green and yellow on it. 

Not that you’d know from the photo.

It’s a real education in how colours in photos are not necessarily  the same as in life. 
This is how it looked against the blue background. ( nothing like the colours I saw.)

I’m not happy with the small painting I did as I squashed it in and it doesn’t look right.

Think I might try it again on a bigger canvas  ……or I might just eat it!

It’s been a lovely day.

In Marconia. Coffee with  friends ….
In Tinchi.
Amazing red bush. Managed to cut the cars out of the photo. 

I’ve spent the last half hour covering the scrapes on the floor with paint and repainting the fake hearth around the stove. It looks so much better. ( I really ought to varnish it soon.)

Tomorrow  I’ve another commission to do and then I can start to paint boats from Trani.

Now it’s  wine time and an episode of “Have I got news for you.”

Cheers 🍷🍷
