Still Life with Beets, 40x30 (Sold)


This still life is deceptively large...but the 40x30 size gives each element significant impact and makes it larger than life, literally. I love beets...the color, the starchy stems, the large leaves, and this leaf wanted to be important in this painting. This is a strong, graphic painting. (Sold)

  1. Having seen this piece in person, I can testify to its beauty. It really is huge. Up close and personal with the veggies. I like very much as is.
