The Miracle of Life

The shiny black and red plum is the ultimate celebration of how to paint all of the things that are not even there. The actual surface color is barely an afterthought to the surface sheen and reflections of all of the colors around the subject. This is, in effect, a study of the impressions of color upon a subject by all of the surrounding elements. Just as each of us is the product of all we've learned, and all of the people and experiences that have influenced us throughout our lives, our own signature input to the path we follow is only one small part of what makes us each a unique and special miracle of life.
