Still Life

This is a still life that I've been working on in the evenings (after my day is mostly done) for far longer than any one simple drawing should be worked on. This one is a fairly good size at 11 x 14. It probably wouldn't have taken me nearly as long as it did if it weren't for my being deluged with work for my upcoming show, the usual multi-week holiday nonsense we all endure at this time of year and my ripping the end of my index finger off in a truck door a few weeks back. Having a skinned and heavily sutured digit makes it rather impossible to draw, or do much else for that matter, if you want it done right.
