What a surreal light!The lemon shines as into a non-atmospheric space: all the outlines are sharp.This painting is pure imagination. Almost entirely an abstraction.A pure invention.

Hi there.. VERY nice painting but I think the background is too bright for it. The lemon is perfect but the background makes you look mostly at that. I still enjoy it..but my two cents. Thanks

So high key for a Merrow-Smith still life. And the color combination is contemporary Vermeer!

Absolute perfection! Lemon in spirit and reality...I am agog!

The color and clarity remind me of a Magritte. I think it's happy. :)
