Two Nectarines
(18" x 24", oil on canvas)

Visitors to my studio are often amazed to see how a rather ordinary looking set up, such as this one, is transformed into something ethereal once I turn on my spotlights. Light changes everything; it can reveal hidden details, de-emphasize the mundane, or add magical cast shadows. Many years of working with a top-notch photographer taught me the power of good lighting (and no Mark, you don't get a commission, simply my undying gratitude).
