I love the yellows, reds, and oranges in this still life, and how they contrast with the crisp blue and white.This painting reminds me of setting a beautiful table in the Fall. As the air begins to turn cool, a basket full of flowers and gourds is a symbol of how much we have to be thankful for. This painting is a reminder to create beauty with what's around you, find joy and inspiration in the day-to-day and to see the ordinary with the eye of any artist.
