A fellow artist gave me a bag full of quince that had fallen off a tree in a storm. Gorgeous and ripe, they did not last long. Painting the progression of decay as we read the composition left to right was my goal. 12" x 16", Oil/panel, $ 1,200

I just love this little alla prima, the latest to my site. The paint is still wet, as is my appetite for more persimmons. Oil on linen, 8"x10", $675

For those who don't have an instant recognition of this item, it is a pin cushion. Far more lovely and delicate than anything I could sew, I never wanted to mar them with pin holes. Oil on cradled panel, 6"x6". $375
