Kitchen window still life

I keep a rotating collection of objects on the kitchen window sill and enjoy adding and subtracting to the curation. A did this painting in the kitchen trying to capture quickly the light on the objects as well as the outside view. I wanted a loose, sketchy finish; a painting that doesn't take itself too seriously and that has an element of immediacy in the subject. The camellia outside is scraped back and abstracted, the vessel, curry pot and mug are all described briefly with the emphasis on describing the light on the forms and where the shadows are.
