Lemons & Tile


Lemons &Tile
8x6in  oil on canvas panel $140. SOLD


Artist Note.
I have this beautiful old tiled area 
with a shelf and have not painted 
it for a while. 
Back when I painted more 
realistically
I would really get into painting
all the the details so 
I felt like I was actually 
painting the tile itself...
but now I can suggest the pattern
 with imperfect
suggestions of color and shape.

I am not sure why, but it 
takes even longer somehow
than when I used to  
tightly render the details.

Now, it is all about the 
light and mood 
I love being an impressionist!
