Eggshells

Protests, riots, bombs, heat, it’s all getting a bit tedious now. Suitcase is out and, since the sun has started to shine at home, I’m going to head out in a few days back to the relative calm of my garden studio……..and, relax.
Some extremely white eggshells that took my fancy.

Cherries and cup

It’s definitely cherry season here. They are sold everywhere on the streets. I think it’s supposed to reach 45 degrees here today so I’m looking forward to coming home next week. I will be able to enjoy a bit of plein-air painting in the UK. Security here say it’s a definite no-no. I suppose I would stick out like a sore thumb standing there with an easel in downtown Islamabad, painting a cherry-seller.

Beanz

Observation is what painting is all about. So, how come, in all these years, I’ve never noticed that Heinz use a “z” in the word Beanz. Either subliminal branding, that the word beans is so synonymous with Heinz……or maybe just that I’m just not so observant. Or perhaps just that I rarely eat them.

Ketchup

An old favourite. There’s always a bottle in our larder just in case and I have to say, the glass bottles are far superior in their beauty to their plastic counterparts.

Aubergine on a cloth
