Olive Oil, Bread, Lemon and Two Olives

oil on canvas / 1 2 x 24"

SOLD

The challenge here was reproducing the gold alfoil on the bottle.

Finding the right yellows and combinations of warm

and cool colors, create the perception of fine creases,

and retaining a brushy finish. I don't wish to end up with

a photographic realist painting, just a realistic painted finish.

Two Sweet Potatoes ...in a field

Two Sweet Potatoes ...in a field

oil on canvas / 12 x 16"

SOLD

What is it about the humble sweet potato that says,

"don't paint me,

I'm an ugly old thing that lives under the ground.

I taste sweet,

I actually look great,

if you take the time to see beyond

my dirty face and my bumpy body.

I'm so sweet and bright on the inside,

but don't paint me that would be just too kind.

Perhaps you could find another one

as lonely as I am and we could be painted together ..."
