Lemon & Slice


Oil on Canvas Board, 6" x 6", framed - SOLD
Email: marie@mariefox.com
I'll always return to lemons as a subject because of their almost spherical shape and the contrast between the shiny textured skin and translucent wet interior.

Marie, I really like your sense of design and strong colour. I agree with what you say about these small paintings - they let you focus much more easily and concentrate on the main issues at hand.

Yellow and purple. Perfect!
I'm a dedicated small painter since viewing Trevor Chamberlain's work 15 years ago. He makes a small painting look big. He is also the master of simplified brushstrokes.

great color...and the translucence you achieved is great

Yes, this is a beautiful piece! LOVE that you're not afraid to use lots of beautifully saturated color!
