collector comment:
I have to tell you. I took the two still life paintings to
the frame shop, and the ladies there were absolutely in awe
over your artwork. (peeled lemon and Pears) Just thought I
would share this with you. One lady said,"These are the best
art pieces I have seen for weeks"
This is the finished image posting of “Green Pears” created as a commission for a collector. You can see the process photos on my last posting below showing the progression of the work. It is often fun to see the first few brush strokes as the painting begins to come to life. The first photo in this series shows the front pear almost as a shell in three dimensions and it’s even interesting to me to go back and see how the forms were built up almost as a skeleton to give the final image. Often in the first few strokes, the design becomes apparent, and then it is just a matter of filling in the details while keeping the mood and motion of the design alive.
