Cream Raspberries

 This is a new cup, which received the honor of being placed with these tree raspberries. My friend associated this with frosting on a wedding cake. Interesting idea!

Teacup and Berries

Yesterday turned out especially prolific for me. I had just finished my first painting and was about to call it a day when my husband came back home from our country house and brought two baskets full of raspberries, strawberries, gooseberries and currants. He was even so thoughtful as to pick some of them with their leaves - exactly how I need them for my paintings! So, naturally, how could I resist the temptation of painting another one  and this became my second painting for the day.

Raspberries from My Garden

SOLD

I picked these raspberries from the raspberry bushes in my garden. What I said before about the ephemeral nature of Russian summer is particularly true about raspberries - their season only lasts for about two weeks. Minus rainy days, of course, when you can't pick them and they might even go all watery and tasteless. Yesterday we had an hour long interruption in the rain and drizzle and I rushed to pick a few berries. That's how these ones survived the rainy day.

A Bowl and Four Raspberries

This is a companion to the sold "A Bowl and Two Eggshells". I decided to use the same naming format on both pieces since the bowl is the same and the composition is similar.

My friend came over to my place to paint together today. She is a beginning painter and needed my advice. I enjoyed such collaborations.

I really enjoyed painting those delicious berries! Actually, it was the first raspberries I ever worked on.
