robyn's eggs

For mother's day this past year, I painted my mom a picture. Her name is Robyn so I decided to paint her some Robyn's eggs. When looking for inspiring photos to base my painting off of, I only found nests with 3 eggs inside. Since my mom has 4 children I decided to give her 4 eggs anyways... the 4th one is me! I couldn't leave myself out of the picture. :) and it worked perfectly because her kitchen is blue.
Things that I learned from this painting:
  • the colors of the egg are different because of the reflections of the twigs around them.
  • the twigs have blue in them because that is reflected from the eggs.
