On the easel

I hesitate to post this. The image depends on very subtle gradations of value, and those are not captured very well by my camera (with my limited photographic skills at least). Many of the value changes are much harsher in this image than on the actual painting. But here it is.

“Bag and Bulb,” oil on lead-primed canvas, 16 × 20”.
