Making Truffles

The light was stunning as it poured in from the window, illuminating this baker as she dipped truffles in chocolate.  I walked up on this scene with only enough time for a quick sketch on site.  After leaving, and busy with the everyday events of life, I kept thinking about it.  I couldn't stop thinking about it.  So, today I had to put that scene down in paint.  I used my sketch, my very fresh memories, and a photo I took before leaving to assist me.  I'm not sure if it's finished or not, I've lost the daylight now.  So, I will check it in the morning and see how I feel about it in the light of day!  Painting number 1849 in 1849 days.
