Acrylic paint and Sharpie pen on cotton board. 15inx12in
A new addition to the Tropical and Food Collections, this painting is a tribute to the juiciness of the fruit…unlike my previous renditions of the Papaya, this is painted with much fewer details and has a relaxed feel to it, which is more in tune with the tropics...it is also part of the Sepia and Gold colour collection See the entire Tropical Collection..HERE Watercolour with Pen and Ink on DrawMaster Paper “They grew like giants in our backyard / in Cuba, thin, ravenously thirsty plants / that bore fruit every spring, first as small / as pears, then the fruit swelled to the size / of footballs, their communal weight / a clumped burden on the whole plant— / only my father knew for sure when to cut / them down, bring them inside the house, / in the kitchen he sliced them, these toothy / smiles, teeth like black goblets, a volcano’s / ashy tear on leaves, sweet, delicious, these / fruta bombas, as my father called them. / For years while we lived in Los Angeles, / he couldn’t grow them in such a dry climate, / but when he moved to Hialeah, Florida, / he harvested them once again, brought / them upstairs under his arms, a smile”..excerpt..V. Suarez …
“Garlic and Single Red Onion” belongs to the “Potting Shed” Series….almost abstract, the mound of garlic is a celebration of this delicious plant, that’s so good for you, it’s no penalty to eat it in some form every day. 197 Views “Autumn is a good season for beginning to live gently. It is the time for harvesting the fruits of winter planning, spring planting and summer husbandry. With a good harvest, we can take the first steps to live a more gentle lifestyle or at least to start planning for changes in lifestyle. We can store our harvest, whether of food, knowledge or financial resources, from which to draw as we make the transition from our current lifestyle to one which walks more gently on the landscape. A portion of that harvest can be enjoyed now, in celebration and thanksgiving of the successes of the past. A portion of the harvest should also be saved. Saved for the time until the next harvest. Saved for seeds for next year’s planting. Saved for the future as a safety net against unforseen setbacks. An abundant harvest gives us the resources to easily enter the period of winter planning and spring planting. A time for renewing our commitment to a more gentle life”.Living Gently Quarterly… Watercolour with Liquid Gold on pre-textured Arches Paper… Some painters paint the sapphire sea, / And some the gathering storm. / Others portray young lambs at play, / But most, the female form. / “Twas trite in that primeval dawn / When painting got its start, / That a lady with her garments on / Is Life, but is she Art? / By undraped nymphs / I am not wooed; / I’d rather painters painted food. / Food, / Just food, / Just any old kind of food. Ogden Nash.
This branch was painted from the apple tree in my father’s garden in September. Watercolours on Arches hot-pressed paper

Chillies…..hot, hot, hot! An important part of our Mediterranean cooking…... But what I like most about this picture, is that when I showed it to my husband he told me that if there was ever a photo of a food type that personified me, then this would be it!! Spicy with a hot Sicilian temper….and with every bite extreme emotions are experienced – from absolute pleasure to making grown men cry! Grazie amore….....;) Post-processing in Photoshop.
I’m not sure what kind of berry, but what luscious color.

This is a very colorful painting of apples on canvas with acrylics, watercolors and pastels and even some sharpies markers. I prepared the canvas with a mix of gesso and pumice to have a rough texture that would work with the pastels
