For many, sitting behind a pewter is part of the daily rind.

Green Apple with Stemless Wine Glass

 

The wine glass has run out of stem, but for the apple it's full stem ahead.

Mandarines with Blue Pot

Once, there were three mandarines,
And a small pot of blue in between.
Whilst they got acquainted
I stood back and painted
And the scene seen here now's what I seen (or saw, whatever).

Portrait of Andrew MacKenzie OAM

 

This was painted as part of the Victorian Artists' Society Portrait Painters in Action day 2025.  The day is a hive of activity and should more accurately be called the Portrait Painters Action day as it's the opposite of inaction.

And many many thanks to Mr Andrew MacKenzie OAM for being a patient and considerate sitter.
