It's back to school time and these red apples in my kitchen kept reminding me of all the teachers and students out there preparing for another year. I loved school and I still remember being both excited and nervous. When I was little (and life was simpler) a new box of crayons was always the best part for me! Anyone remember the big fat ones with a flat side so they wouldn't roll off the desk?
I sold "Cherry on White"! Also sold "Three Apples" using the DPW auction and there was a bidding frenzy! Well, maybe not a frenzy but here were three different bidders and a little bit of bidding action. :) "Three Apples" comes closest to the "look" I would like to achieve in my work and I feel it is one of my best daily paintings so far. It's more painterly than most of mine and, for some reason I was able to get into the "zone" when I painted it. I've not been able to repeat it since. I was a little sad to put it in an envelope and mail it to Colorado today.
