I think this is done. I want to keep it loose. Your input is very welcome as always.

Daffodils in a blue glass. Oil on canvas, 40x50 cm
There is no pure white paint on the canvas. (Thank you for earlier critique). There is a lot of blue, yellow, grays, even red in these white petals.. It was hard to trust my eyes, but everything worked out well...

Three Apples Touching
Here are three apples touching. When I composed the setup for the apples I felt they all had to be touching. I think you can understand why. 
I didn't do as much color checking and had to modify some of the setup because of the lighting.
This is much looser than what I have been painting thus far. I don't know, I guess I need more patience in times like these.
The pallet is still wet so comments and observations are welcome.
Re: Toast Rack-Finished-Toast is now done
Instead of the vague random abstract patterns I had done for the toast, I went back and actually followed those patterns more closely from the source. Toast is done.
Thanks for looking

Re: Gouache sketches
@tassieguy yeah I’ve not bothered so much in the past with smaller studies before trying larger but it’s probably a good way to figure out some of the trickier stuff ahead of time like a rehearsal I’m doing some of these just to get used to these new colours, seems to really be helping. Did a few more today actually as they’re quite quick and it really seems to accelerate the learning process:

Re: So Glad to Be Back and FINISHED!!!
After Cindy signed off on this, she came back with two more little changes that I did that made a difference. This is the REAL FINAL version. It's name is now "Just Desserts."
Re: Gouache sketches
Tried something slightly larger in casein at 11x7” on watercolor paper:
It’s quite similar to gouache on paper but a bit thicker. Takes a bit of getting used to to be honest. Anyway this is the river behind my house!
