The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work...Emile Zola

oranges with blue bowl 8 x 10 oil


Obviously I have a horrible time naming my paintings. I can never come up with those cute little titles some artists do. It would be easier if i could just call it still life #362 or something along those lines. I really loved painting this. When i set this still life up and saw the bowl and the oranges together and the way the light from the window fell on it I got excited.  Right then I felt grateful that I can see the beauty in the things around me. It felt as though that was my reward.
