Cocktail

Oil on canvas 24.5 x 30cm
I have dispensed with the collage making beforehand.  Instead, I am using familiar objects, working out a composition and then painting on the canvas without looking at the real objects (well, not too much).  Wasn't it Bonnard who used to paint in another room separate from his still life set up, so that he wouldn't get too hung up by the reality of the forms and instead, retain his initial inspiration?
