LEEK AND CHERRY TOMATOES, 6X8, OIL SOLD
It seems I always return to still life paintings and the ever popular fruits and vegetables. Especially for small works, they are so much fun.
And of course, they are all double duty, first as models and secondly as lunch. Purchase here SOLD
Probably you go back to fruit and vegetable " still life ", because it is something that comes easy, something you are very good at, one just has to look at the results. Poetry in the kitchen!
Well, how wonderful, Carol! I found her blog through yours several weeks ago... Congratulations on the great interview... how kind of you for this giveaway... I hope that it can be mine!!
Bonjour Carol, Just found your beautiful blog via Karen. The Bride in Praque is just lovely, as are all your paintings. I'm a new follower and will be back again soon. Mimi
I am your newest follower thanks to Karena. I so very glad she introduced me to your site. I am a painter but I haven't painted since BC...."before children" I am just getting my creative juices flowing and my blog is the start. I home you have a chance to visit. My logo is a pear I painted way back in BC... I love your work. Au revoir Caroline
I was blog-traveling and fell on Karena's blog, which now led me to yours. I just wanted to tell you that your still life paintings are so modern without being too abstract or cold. I loved the one with the banana slices, blueberries and strawberries. That could've easily been my cereal toppings! It's a wonder that I haven't been able to relate to a still life painting in a long time.
I just want to tell you that your work is beautiful. I was so focused on getting to this blog that I didn't pay attention to the contest :)
I just discovered you and your work through the giveaway on Karens'a blog. Your paintings are beautiful, and I'm crossing my fingers that your painting of the Prague Bridge finds a new home with me :-)
I love those little tomatoes..all good enough to eat!
ReplyDeleteA super painting, Carol, and I love they way you [posed it with those darling little sheep!
