Creating the painting "Late Harvest" was most enjoyable.  There is something about the interaction of the copper pan on it's side --- that rich, warm color, and the bright, green apples --- cool and ripe for the picking.  This is not the first, nor will it be the last time I have teamed up copper with green apples.  They seem to bring out the best in each other.  The copper pan is sitting on an old cutwork embroidery linen piece, which I believe softens the image somewhat. 

"Late Harvest" is an original oil painting on 14" x 11" canvas.
In addition, "Late Harvest" was selected as part of the FAV15% (jury's favorite 15% of the entries) in the March 2010 FineArtViews Painting competition through Fine Art Studio Online.
