A starving artist creates the most deliciously sweet and crisp apples—-I hope Louis saves one for you!
As usual, a beautiful painting!

Dear Julian, I have done fasting before and I remember the wonderful experience of going to a supermarket and the fruits and vegetables looked incredibly brilliant, the colors were amazing and the shapes ... hunger has its blessings. I am sure that you have got the feeling.
Wonderful apples. I bought last week a bag of ornamental gourds, for painting, and they are incredible, so much fantasy and variations just for .... fun!
A big hug from Dublin

Really nice study. I love the color and light, the solidity of the forms, and the cheeky composition. Thank you for your diligence in painting and posting your work.

Painter’s notes

These little apples came from the organic co-operative, they have an amazing colour and are marvellously odd shapes... they taste pretty good to, or so I'm told (only 12 hours to go)
