A full day in the studio

So glad to be able to paint all day today. This painting is from about 2 months earlier- I wasn’t able to finish it- and wasn’t happy with the color palette. So I sanded it all over- enough to take down the thick areas- and give a pretty uniform surface texture. 
 I decided to use warmer colors for the table top and background. Raw umber with cad red for the background and yellow ochre with some cad red, black, white for the table top. 








I changed the one smaller grape leaf on the left - it wasn’t a good compositional element. When it’s had s chance to dry a day or 2- I’ll be able to finish up the details in the glass and the grapes.
