Dragging My Feet

I'm feeling a dry spell coming on. I haven't painted in days. I've mentioned the new still life I'm painting which I've done studies and sketches for it and I think one little thing is missing , something I really want to try and that's a bit of tromp l'oeil. It seems to be popping up in more standard still-lifes now with, for example, a photo tacked on the background with a push-pin. Could be a newspaper clipping or an old black and white photograph. It's a trendy thing but why not? Just need a picture to use...And to try to get painting again, I'm going to do a quick one tomorrow of a lime or something.
