"Talent and all that for the most part is nothing but hogwash. Any schoolboy with a little aptitude might very well draw better than I perhaps; but what he most often lacks is the tough yearning for realization, the teeth-grinding obstinacy and saying; even though I know I'm not capable of doing it, I'm still going to do it."
-M.C. Escher

Weekly Painting - Mortar and Pestle Still Life

I'm posting this week's painting a little early... mostly because it's done, and I'm working on other stuff right now.  This one certainly has it's flaws, but I'm unreasonably happy with it anyway.  I think perhaps its the contrast between the subject and the background.  I intend on posting progress shots of these in the future to provide some insight into my thought processes.  This one just kind of finished itself before I knew what was happening.  I hope you enjoy it.  Until next time!
