Winter Pink with Pears, by Polly Jones
My husband and I visited a fabulous show at The Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas to see the exhibit "Monet-The Early Years." It was so exciting and inspiring...and also pretty crowded. I came back and finished the above painting with a renewed sense of commitment to pay attention to the surface quality of my paintings and not over working the paint. Winter Pink with Pear is breaking some design rules about putting circles in the middle, cutting edges off and isolating colors but I think it works. Sometimes you have to break the rules.

These are available in my Etsy store here.
