Beautifully juicy painting. I especially like the creamy colors on the cup and the way they cool down as they disappear into the dark background. Merry Christmas from California!

I love seeing the brush strokes... you continue to be an inspiration. This little baby sparkles. Merry Christmas from NY!

Your work seems looser - more Frans Halls than it was before your sojourn to Venice. I like it.

Thanks for posting your paintings every day. I try and paint every day, and your work often gets me out of the computer chair and into the studio! Merry Christmas, and thank you. Penny

Wonderful picture. The bold brushstrokes on the cup really serve to hold that lemon in place.

Julian,this work shows the hidden bull-headed "bloodstream" of a painting,thanks to the brushstrokes you are able to create;consciously and/or unconsciously.It's a marvel of cleverness and heightened pictorial sensibilty.The Yin and the Yang,wrap-around,are everywhere!

You grabbed me with the topograpy of the lemon. I can't look away.

I love the lovely lumpy-ness of the lemon
