I love painting these large still life pieces...cheers me up to see them completed. Part of the enjoyment is in searching for and discovering the beautiful fabrics to pose the fruits and vegetables on for the painting. I'm fussy and it is not easy for me to find fabrics I love enough to want to buy. 

Painting these still lifes are so far removed from how I paint my visionary/intuitive garden, angel and celestial paintings. Still life works provide me with a structure to refer to whereas the intuitive, spontaneous work has no structure and I never know what is going to manifest. 

Today's Quotation: "Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames."
