Media: Oil on linen panel
Size: 10x10 in
This painting was inspired by seeing my neighbor's childhood Montessori pink tower blocks arranged like a little cityscape on his coffee table. I found them irresistible and had to paint them. The turnips I'd bought to cook for dinner seemed like a perfect addition to the still life, on a linen table cloth that had been my grandmothers. You can read more about my painting process and see all the steps on my blog here.
