Fruit Still Life // Paintings + Works On Paper
For the past two summers I have painted my 'Fruit Still Life' Series, inspired by the season and the nostalgia a bowl of fruit can bring.
"Well Stocked", was most of my fruit bowls until is was snack time. For me, summer is all about enjoying fresh fruit throughout the day. My mother always kept a bounty of freshly cut fruit on the kitchen counter and dining table, making it easy to snack whenever we wanted.
I’ve always found joy in arranging the fruit bowl right after returning from the grocery store. This series was inspired by my trip to Maine this summer, where we spent five weeks. I aimed to create a sense of home for myself and my children, starting with a vibrant bowl of fruit. Which mostly consisted of fresh green grapes and bananas, I can almost taste the grapes in this piece.
About Time To Make Banana Bread, reminds me the vibrant colors of a fruit bowl and the happiness that can bring, especially when paired with delightful treats like the first banana bread of the season.
