Experimental III

Now, Frankie Howerd, let's get down to it......it doesn't work as well as the previous paintings on the same topic. I'm not sure if the centre egg is in front of a shadow or a mouse hole. Also, the egg on the left is a bit 2-D. Am I being awful?

Ah, Marjorie...no, you're not being awful...just honest. I am disappointed with it...haven't even shown it to Basia. What does that tell you? Thank you..your words are always appreciated. R

This was a bit of a struggle, partly because I thought that I could 'knock it off' with no real effort...after all, what could be simpler than painting a couple of eggs, three in this case, or three 'encased'...and a bit of rough hessian? When M. Blase visits, M. Effort departs. Tant pis...c'est la vie...tous fini! Pretentious?? Moi??? Oh, please your selves! Oil on Canvas 40cm x 30cm
