A couple of Sundance organic lemons, picked for their lumpiness. It shows a little more here than the previous painting. I do like the oddities.

Some pretty Sundance organic lemons from the Natural Food Store here in town.
I tried to pick the lumpiest ones I could find, but it didn't really show up here.
I'll try again for good lumpiness.

Thinking Lilacs - SOLD

Thinking Lilacs
Oil on Wood Panel, 6" x 8"
SOLD at $20 plus $10 shipping.



For my delightful cousin B, I did a painting of "beauty berries" recently. Ever heard of these berries? No, I hadn't either. See below for how the painting came out (now that it's been given as a gift, I can show it here.) Anyway, I had a lot of colors mixed, and the piles of paint reminded me of Spring, hence some abstract lilacs. Done with a palette knife.

These are the berries:

Three D'Anjou Pears - Gifted

Three D'Anjou Pears
Oil on Wood Panel, 6" x 8"
Gifted

I took some artistic license with this one, and reduced the size of the first pear on the left. It's actually the size of a mango. In fact, when I first saw it, I thought it was a mango. These guys are so pretty, there may be just one more painting in them. A few dings, which can be hidden in paint, but good, I think, for one more day.
