"Black Plum and Lemon"




Oil on 5'x7" hardboard panel

I can't help it, there's something so appealing about fruit, I love to paint it. So many colors and textures, and shapes to choose from. I also find that it is a sort of mysterious thing. How a piece of fruit comes to be. How many varieties and flavors, almost an endless assortment! The same with flowers too. Just makes me think of how creative, and clever, and immense God's imagination is. Awesome :-)

  3. I am so trying to figure out how you've painted the texture! I just can't even imagine a way to make that look so realistic and you've done it so magically. So beautiful!
