Pickle Polka original mixed media painting by Polly Jones
8" square colorful original mixed media painting. Sold
I like to stare at pickle jars. You should try it some time. I can't quite capture the ambient color of the juice with paint. This (really colorful) piece has some vintage Golden Encyclopedia paper in it....some of it covered up. I especially like knowing that it has "Winged Victory of Samothrace" echoing the slant of the pickle spears on the right. A triceratops skeleton is covered up on the left.

Fun, fun, fun ... I will never look at a simple jar of pickles the same way again ... thanks!
That is the best of complements I could imagine Mary Ellen! Thanks much!
This made me laugh out loud. Very nice job. I gotta go now and find my pickle jar. Thanks for sharing.
Makes me hungry! Pickles are one of my favorite snacks!
I wonder if pickles are good for you? Vinegar supposedly is so maybe pickles are a health food choice.
I really enjoy looking at your work. This painting is so clever and fun. Nice job.
