Wow! The distinct and confidently stated dashes and daubs of various shade and hue of reds, white and ochre at a distance magically dissolve and resolve themselves into vividly real strawberries. Superb painting!

I once tasted garriguettes growing in my friend's garden near his chateau not far from Carpentras. They were warmed by the morning sun. I'll never forget it. I could eat your painting, Julian. It is exquisite!

Against each other like puppies to keep themselves warm...they are sleeping soundly. So sweet painting!

OOOOHHHH I am perishing for Carpentras strawberries. A little over month now and I'll get some.
