Painting again

I began this blog some time ago... I'd intended to use it as a means of keeping my drawing and painting,  but the council and meetings took over.  I'm not on council any more.  I'm painting again!
I have a programme of paintings to do over the next week or so an hopefully that will get me started again.
Today I have copied a till life painting by Cezanne.  Of course I only had a dodgy reproduction to copy,   but I am pleased with the result...  and I'll only get better as I get back into regular practice.
