Citrus Medley

Citrus Medley

6"x6"

Acrylic on panel

I've really enjoyed painting grapefruit, so I decided to try making a piece with oranges and lemons...I started the painting with the half an orange and lemon slice..when I was almost through painting them I thought they looked lonely, so decided to add the orange slice on the right..I think the composition is stronger now, and I really like the color of the foreground /background...I think it has a very Florida feel to it...

SOLD

Lake George Sunset

Lake George Landscape

10"x24"

Acrylic on canvas

When I lived in upstate NY we would often go to the Algonquin restaurant down the street. I remember this sunset..we got to the restaurant early to see the colors in the lake and sky change..after grabbing a drink we headed to Lake George Village to walk around.  I thought the pinks, purples, and blues were really beautiful on this evening in particular.

6"x6"

Acrylic on panel

Companion piece to the apple painting I posted recently. Each apple has a different shape and color which gives it its own unique personality. I like the green in the background...don't know why, but makes me think of The Wizard of Oz...scene with the flying monkeys...all of those beautiful colors...

SOLD

Fairy Tale Eggplants & Mushroom

  "Fairy Tale Eggplants and Mushrooms"6x6 Acrylic on panel

 I was at Whole Foods looking for something to paint. I saw these little eggplants and thought they were cute. Then I noticed they are called fairy tale eggplants. What goes better with a fairy tale Eggplant  than a mushroom!? Makes me think of the Smurfs or Fantasia.
