I must admit, my wife makes the best apple and cherry pie around. However, this pie was bought at a bakery - my bad. I wanted to try to capture the aluminum plate. I thought the red from the cherries and the cool tones would play well together. They do! I had fun painting this very expressive composition.
I guess I'm pretty nuts about my breakfast. I wait for the weekends. My wife and I try to go out to a different Diner every weekend for breakfast. I start my Saturdays with a nice cup of coffee, eggs and pancakes. Call me a sinner. This little painting is a very expressive in its approach and realism.

In this still life I wanted to play with the distortion of the eggs and the glass of the pyrex measuring container. My wife as a collection of these measuring glass cups and I couldn't resist in painting one for her.

Almost surreal and life like. The yolk color is one of my favorite to paint. The shine and transparency of the shell and yolk make this painting a real charm for me.
A number of years ago my Dad and I would stop for a muffins and coffee before he and I would go to work on renovating some old house in Detroit. My dad is a retired carpenter who enjoyed fixing up old houses. I'll never forget those mornings he and I would chat over coffee and talk sports, politics and work. He is 80 now and he still works like a dog. Must be the old Italian blood in him. This painting may seem simple, but to me it is like a froze one second of our time together.
