I love the way the color of the objects work with and against each other, each vying for attention, poking in and out of the light. The organic in harmony with the inorganic; symbolic of our lives. The bitter of the lemon with the peace-offering olive branches.
Give and take.
Dark and Light.
Wow! It seems that every part of this painting from values to composition are perfect. Amazing. It reminds me how much there is to be learned about this wonderful craft of ours. Thanks for the inspiration David.
