Under the Old Wallpaper

14" x 11" oil on gessoed masonite, unframed $80.

When we redid our condo we must have scraped off 12 layers of paint and paper.  It looked a lot like this.

Waiting for Fatima

6" x 6" oil on gessoed masonite.  Unframed $75.

The title refrences Ray Stevens lyrics, my attempt at subtle humor, but it also lends a certain cache to the fruit.  Unlike my previous pomegranite, this one has not a hint of impasto and is sort of dreamy in it's blurred approach.

I continue to tinker with this site.  I can't seem to make paragraphs in my profile and apologize for the conglomeration of info over there.  It may improve.  Then again, it could get worse.  Hang on.

Thanks for looking.

Four Little Peppers

3-1/4" x 5-1/4 oil on gessoed masonite, unframed.  $50

They're little, but they make a statement.

 

I read on another art blog how the artist felt silly asking the cashier at the checkout stand to be gentle with the produce because she wanted to paint it.  I'm the same way.  I hold them in my hands, tuck them into my purse instead of risking putting them in a shopping bag.  Ger is getting very adept at picking subjects...er produce.

Pomegranite on White

5" x 5" oil on gessoed masonite. $75, unframed.

I always make a mess when I eat them. Drop a tablespoon full of these beautiful seeds into your champagne flute.

Red Wave

9" x 9-1/4" oil on gessoed board.  $75, unframed.

Papaya and Kiwi

6" x 6" oil on gessoed masonite.  $100

I have several white napkins that are too stained to use at the table any more.  Usually I throw them in my rag box but realized that the changing of color due to age and use lends them properties that are perfect for a "painterly" drop cloth.  Oh how I love to recycle.

Cantelope and Grapes

6" x 6" oil on gessoed masonite.  If you like it, make me an offer.  This one was an attempt to loosen up and paint very quickly using a timer.
