This
piece was selected for Exhibition and publication in Richeson 75: Still
Life & Floral in March 2007.
Setting up the fruit
bowl just never occurred to me while contemplating my next
still life painting. I was headed to my studio to "set
something up" when I spotted our table being
drenched in light from the rising sun. I grabbed a peach
and my favorite basket and got to work trying out several
arrangements. I chose this one, not realizing how much
work I had set myself up for by including the basket! For
me, another fun part of this still life is that my husband
made the table top from a piece of wood my Dad gave him
and the table legs are pieces of driftwood from the beach
in front of our home (on Whidbey Island). I think it's all
Just Peachy! |
