Do you see similarities between my latest still life and the one right above, which I painted in the winter term? Exactly same choices of fruit and vegetables! Even the same burlap on the table. Obviously, my teacher, John Murray, really likes the combination of shapes and colors.
Last Thursday evening, he put a swirl of a watermelon, onions, carrots, small pots, and kitchen towel on a low platform so that we could look down and paint. Look closely. You will find a full spectrum of colors--red, white, blue, yellow, orange, green, and purple. Aha! That is what he was after. I must say that it is one delicious still life!
