Kitchen by Maria Medeiros


Hello Everyone! I'm so excited to be here! I've been looking at all your wonderful artwork and you inspire me so much!
Today I made a few goodies from my kitchen.
A lemon and mini croissants!


Still Life Lemon


This was such a challenge for me. 
I need to work with more glass and liquid. 



Still life Broccoli 


I wasn't going to post this because its all wrong to me.
The proportions and everything about it was just not working for me... Its one of those quick 
sketches. I figured I am too hard on my self and 
should relax. This would be a great challenge for me.
To overcome being too critical of my self and
just have fun!


Thank you everyone! Have a lovely weekend!

  1. Maria, you may have just joined in but you did it with so many wonderful sketches! I'm glad I can't smell the croissants because they look so good! Quick sketches are good practice, so it is good to do them and post them anyway.

  3. Hi Maria. I love your sketches. Your croissants look delish. Unlike Joan, I would EAT them. tee hee. Did you add lemon to them? Your lemon looks great by the way. I agree with Ann. I also agree with Joan about posting your sketches right off. Have a wonderful evening.

  4. Love your array of "Kitchen" entries Maria! Love that you posted them all. The sweet at the top looks nummy indeed; knowing this group it will be gone in no time! I'll partake of the veggie dish/broccoli is a fav of mine; And I 've been known to suck on a lemon; You drew these very well. I applaud you for attempting glass and liquids. Not easy. But yours are fine. And yes, to all your thoughts about the quick sketch. They are fun to do, and I agree we need to just relax and enjoy the process and outcome. I like your "home" sign on your kitchen sink counter too. Glad you are here!

  6. So many lovely paintings to look at here. I love the croissants. And you are certainly too hard on yourself, the broccoli is the one that really caught my eye, such a lovely colour and looks so real.
    And the last one is fun, I like the loose style and colour.

  7. A great bunch of sketches! That's right, just relax and have fun. I suspect we're all trying to whoop that self-critical thingy! :D
