Pink Bowl and Oranges



The first version of this composition didn't work, so I scraped it off and tried something new. Here's a quote by  Marcel Proust, "Art resides not in the superficial appearance of the subject, but at a depth where that appearance matters little." I have to thank my husband for this quote and he reminds me that I have to try to go beyond mere representation and inject something of myself into the painting.

  1. This painting is so well done, Robin. What a great still life you set up.
    I love the painting and I love the Proust quote, too.
