I went down to Elevated Acre again.
The fog changed about every 5 minutes or so.
I had to work really fast and this painting took about an hour.
There is something I really want to do with it that I did not do on-loacation and I actually might do it as a studio painting..... maybe more to come on that.
8x10 oil
Then I went to the Greenarket at Unton Square and there were turkey eggs!
I got a dozen.
I have never had turkey eggs before or even seen them! I LOVE eggs so really needed to get them. In a week or 2 they will have pheasant eggs!
Turkey eggs are a little larger than chicken eggs but smaller than duck eggs. The yolk is larger but the white/yolk ratio is more like chicken than duck (which has a much larger yolk). The shell is much harder than a chicken egg. The yolk is a little paler and they taste more like chicken egg than duck egg does.
I like them a lot.
I like the moody foggy paintings. Fog brings mystery to any setting.
ReplyDeleteYou are lucky to have so many different types of eggs to eat. I have never had any other than Chicken eggs. I might like duck eggs because yolk is my favorite part of the egg.
