8"x10" oil on gessoed panel
I went shopping and found the most incredible red Pear and right beside it were Prickly Pears. I thought they would made an interesting composition. I really like the way the brush strokes, colours and textures compliment this subject.

The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 1 Corinthians 11:23-25
This symbolic meal has become so full of meaning and importance for me personally as the years pass and I continue on my journey with Christ. I have painted it a few times.
I like to work on a gessoed panel because of the detail, brush strokes and textures that can be achieved.

I did a water colour of this subject when I first met my Wife. (About 14 years ago) I liked it so much that I painted this oil painting using the same subject and composition. (The photo really does not do it justice) I love the way this painting turned out. It's very difficult to paint dark landscapes and retain a sense of depth and distance. This one retains the illusion of distance in a dreamlike fashion which was my intent. It's all about reaching for dreams in uncertain circumstances.

I believe that cabbages are highly underrated. They offer the most beautiful shape and subtlety of colour and texture. They are healthy eating too although I must confess this one wilted away while I was painting it and it had to go into the compost heap.

A fun study of a pair of tomatoes. Painted over the coarse of two days allowing time for the paint to dry between sessions which allows for adding deep rich shadows and colour
