Apple Pie Slice on Glass Dish

This still life is a slice of apple pie that I am just nuts about. Between apple and cherry pie, I have one difficult time deciding which I enjoy the most to eat (my wife spoils me rotten). This still life is composed on a glass cut glass pie dish with a red delicious apple in the background.

Nectarine-Still Life Oil Painting

This composition of a nectarine slices in a aluminum bowl is a whirlpool of reflections and colors. When I first decided to paint this, I was intrigued but the distorted colors and imagery caused by the bowl. The play of light, angles and texture makes this piece one of my favorites. I bought a bunch of nectarines and plums last week while they were still on sale at a local fruit market.

Twinkies-Still Life Oil Painting Original

This very popular subject matter among artist intrigued me. I couldn't resist to paint anything with some kind of illustration and humor. This very expressive painterly subject of one of my favorite treats is not only humorous its almost considered as contemporary realism.

Cherry Pie Slices

I must admit, once my wife discovered I bought a cherry pie for a still life last week, she had to do me one better. She baked one of her classic cherry pies for me. She makes an awesome crust! I had to capture the taste and flavor of her fantastic pie. I really wanted to capture the transparency of the crust over laying the cherries and the dark rich color of cherries. The pie was to die for!

Slice of Watermelon Still Life

In this still life I couldn't resist in painting one of the last slices of water melon (for me) for the summer. As summer comes to a close I will miss the sweet taste of water melon. The reds and greens make for a strong composition on the wood surface.

Cherry Pie in Tin Plate-Oil Painting

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.

By the way, after my wife saw this painting, she immediately baked me a cherry pie - spoiled I know.

Flower- Rose Still Life with Rain Drop

Floral still life. I started a small floral series.This particular flower painting really focuses on the rain drops. Since I enjoy painting marbles so much, rain drops (with its reflections and shine) is perfect for my type of style. Almost surreal !

Corning Ware Tea Pot - Still Life

This classic retro (probably from the 1970's) was a real classic of my parents. This little tea pot from Corning Ware I believe is really a little throw back to the 70's. I really enjoy the pattern on the face of the tea pot.
