PALM SHADOWS FELL ACROSS THE APPLE, 6X8, OIL SOLD

"Find beauty not only in the thing itself but in the pattern of the shadows, the light and dark which that thing provides."

Junichiro Tanizaki



The mantra of an artist.







This time of the year, nature gives me  the most beautiful shadows pouring through my bay windows in the early evening.


Enjoy the beauty around you.

Unique, Carol......love the abstract feel of the shadows across the apple. Sort of a conflicting focus (I don't know how to describe the feeling.)

I really like the abstract feel the shadows create in this painting. Works wonderfully with the realistic apple.

I've enjoyed a beautiful day painting in plein air. Your palm shadows and apple are a perfect end to my lovely day.
