My farmer friend at our local Open Air Market told me when he picked this eggplant he thought of me.  Hmmm...  I painted an eggplant I bought from him last week so when he saw this one he thought I might want to paint it too.  It has a "nose" on both sides of it but I picked this side to paint.  Silly, I know.  Now, I'm finished with eggplants for a while. :)  Really.

Still having a hard time photographing these wet oil paintings.  I noticed Carol Marine has a new Daily Paintworks Tutorial about how she does it.  I think I better take a look at it and see if I can get some desperately needed tips.

By the way, when I posted "I am the Eggplant" last week I thought no one would be interested in purchasing it.  Ha!  It got well above average views, several people following the auction and got a bid on the first day.  Go figure!
