"I started this still life series at the beginning of these strange days of COVID19. I used the fruit from my grocery box, or what I could grow in my own garden. I embraced the bright, vibrant colors of these beautiful fruits and used solid forms to make them come alive on the canvas. (I am a firm believer in the mood boosting properties of color!) I also pursued the geometry of the composition, using line and curve to move the eye and engage the whole of the canvas.   -JM
