Silver Cups and pitchers are some of my favorites to paint. The mirror-like quality of the silver picks up the reflections of leaves and petals on the table, my studio skylight and surroundings, and occasionally my own reflection, resulting in a small self-portrait. I always wear read when painting silver because the slight touch of color in the reflection can add to the composition of the painting.

The Inspiration for my still life paintings comes from the world around me, and as a young art student living in France, it was not hard to find. The local farmer’s markets provided me with an exquisite array of wonderful subject matter. I was immediately drawn to the vibrant vegetables, freshly picked fruit with the leaves still attached, wide variety of eggs, artisan soaps, and intricately crafted pastries.
