Grroooaaannn! I adore tomatoes, but will only eat them in August in the US or most of the year in Provence. This painting picks up all of the qualities of a REAL tomato, and I appreciate how the little gold rim echoes the gold circle in one of those French knives that I like so much. A real tomato, a real knife, a real painting. Quelle merveille!

Julian, please can you tell me how long each day you spend painting as you have really producing so many gems lately. I am a writer and cram a few hours in a day...but I wonder how I compare with you?

Julian, This painting is marvelous!! You captured the light so well and the tomatoe looks wickedly scrumptous. What colors do you use on your palette and what brands do you like? Thanks, Jolene

Julian this painting really wowed me. In my opinion it is perfect in composition. The juiciness of the tomato and the sharp edge of the knife are masterful. Beautiful!

The little gold rim plate! I remember two figs sitting on it sometime ago. That was a great painting - as is this one...

I was lucky enough to win those figs a while back and this would be a perfect match.

Luscious! A taste of summer pleasures. I, too, remember the figs on that plate, and tried to win that auction (Eric Shapiro, you lucky person).
