Nervous Lemons




I should probably 'fess up and say that this painting of mine is greatly influenced by a painting by Colin Wally titled Lemons and Limes.

  2. Love it!

    Normally people think of a still life as something Cezanne did to make money between his real work. But a still life can be a great painting!

  4. Hmmmmmm, I sure don't think of a still life "that Cezanne did to make money" and I don't think most people normally think that......
    A still life is what it is, plain and simple, lovely and compelling, interesting and colorful. still and quiet.

  7. Hi Hazel,
    Thanks for dropping by my blog. I went to the Opera Atelier costume sale last night and I can attest to the absence of lemons! All the costumes are glorious.
