The Potting Shed-Red Grapefruit
“Red Grapefruit” is from The Potting Shed Series..
Watercolour on Arches Paper..
The artist knows stillness is beautiful. He sees it finely.
Then stillness brings a fullness, a lush swelling of the cells.
It is something like a harmonica, an even toned note.
He likens it to a glimmer, freshly blown glass.
He sees the ‘truth’ of art, a dazzling artifice;
he sees the depth of original, reproduced skies.
He knows that what is real is buffered by its form -
no form? no fruit, no color, no signals of the soul. Excerpt from The Artist paints a Bowl of Fruit..Lamont Palmer
