I found these root vegetables at our local Farmer's Market. I had fun shuffling them around on my counter while deciding on a composition. There are those times when I begin a painting enthused, but sometimes doubting whether I will do the subject matter justice. This was one of them.

Today's Quotation: Many people die with their music still in them. Why is this so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out.

I am very happy with this painting. I found my models at the local Farmer's Market and couldn't wait to come home and paint them. I hope you enjoy them too.

"LOVERS" by Marina Petro

"Lovers"
5x7 inch oil on Gessobord
Sold

Thought this would make a sweet contribution for Valentines Day. I spotted these little gems at our local farmers market. I am working on another Garfield painting which is taking much longer than I'd anticipated. Hopefully, it will be completed by Valentines Day. This has been a busy week and I haven't been able to paint as much as I would like to.
