You have the most dynamic ground of anyone I have seen lately. It speaks, it whispers, it moves. And I envy your greens...no, not going for a pun there...Incredible power contained.
All best, Jan
The strokes in the forground guide the eye irrevocably into the olives. Also love the play between the greens and reds. Beautiful!

Am sorry I missed this one. Love the composition and the way one is drawn into those luscious green olives.
Amazing color and vibrance! Like three olives at a cocktail party, the two listening to the third... Would love to be able to get a print of this one!
