“One of a big bagful of Seville oranges I bought to make marmalade—I last made marmalade three or four years ago and we've just run out causing a certain panic at breakfast”

oh my darling clementine! what a smashing painting.I love in particular the shape and colours of the shadowy leaves.
Loved this image. with the great sweeping dark curve of the leaf on left, it looks like the orange is still falling out of the tree. Very lovely image Julian. Bet the marmalade was yummy too. cheers, geo
I am now looking forward to paintings of three jars of marmalade, or the jar on the table with a croissant or piece of baguette with butter at hand, or the jars with some of your pottery pieces.
i love the rhythym of this painting....wish i could send some Florida oranges but the season is almost over. gfs
Yes, please! Jars of marmalade would be wonderful!
Looking at these paintings is a bright spot in my day; thank you!
Beautiful and so moody it doesn't reveal the tangy bright orange treat inside.
Beautiful:)
