Oh how the first really warm days of Spring make your skin feel electric- and the warmth finally reaches every part of you. This in some sense it how it feels to be truly alive again after winter. Even if your winter wasn't too rough of a winter weather-wise. So even though there's just the beginnings of signs of life in my garden - a bit of green sprouting here and there, it didn't keep me from setting up a still life in my garden. The light has been so strong and brilliant this week! And if the weather keeps it up- I'll keep up this series for a while!

Apricots, Cherries & Sunflowers

20"x20" oil on gallery wrapped stretched canvas

"Flowers always make people better and happier; they are sunshine, food and medicine to the soul."
- Luther Burbank


I bought this small tablecloth about a month ago, knowing I'd paint it. It will probably be one of those pieces that ends up in many of my still-life set-ups to come. I knew when I saw it, that I'd be using my big green jug....with sunflowers, & queen-anne's lace. And of course with the print having apricots & cherries, I knew it would be interesting to put some 'actual' cherries & apricots on the table as well.

I started this one yesterday and finished the last bit up this morning. I paint from life, and I've been exploring a lot of views that are back-lit by my studio window. After dinner painting is over, the light has changed by then. The windows face north, so I do have nice even light all day, no 'hot spots' to cook the room (or my fruit & flowers). Don't you just enjoy the long days of summer?!
