Natalie Fierro said...

I am very much enjoying your 'series' here :) Cool combinations and textures.

Diana Moses Botkin said...

Wow, these almost jump off the page. I'm amazed how much dimension you're getting in these pieces that look highly textured. Keep up the wonderful work!

sandra flood said...

This is such a creative series! Love these little pieces!

silvina said...

Dori, thank you!

silvina said...

Natalie, hey girl, thanks. I'm running out of fabric patterns to choose from but still have lots of produce.

silvina said...

Diana, thank you. I just bought a little Lumix camera and am figuring out the settings. With this painting I finally figured out how to photograph it so that texture is more evident.

silvina said...

Sandra, thank you. I'm having a lot of fun with it!

Robin Weiss said...

Hey Silvi! Nice group of luminous fruity paintings...you've got a great technique going on these!
I have a giant Zuk I want to paint.

Glad to see you working!

silvina said...

Hey Robin!
I'll sometimes forget to pick a zucchini on time and end up with something akin to a watermelon!
Thanks for commenting.

Dazzling and sparkling with that background--like little Christmas lights--this painting is wonderful.

Wow. Your garden is quite the well of inspiration, yes?

Loving them all, fer sure.

silvina said...

Hi Melinda, thanks! I'll run out of fabric before produce, that is certain. Fer sure, dude.

Hi Leslie, thank you!

Don Gray said...

Hi Silvina. I check in on your blog fairly regularly to see what's new. Gotta tell you, that dadgum tomato on the funky leopard skin print...it just keeps looking better and better. These paintings have a presence that sneaks up on me.

silvina said...

Don, so nice to know you look in once in a while.
"dadgum", is that an Oregonian term? ; )

Don Gray said...

Yep. "Dadgum" is Oregonian for "Goshdern."

PS: My word verification: "Dandef." I think that's Oregonian too, but I don't know what it means.

silvina said...

Don, maybe Dandef is a variation of "bassackwards", a popular term in Colorado, according to my husband's uncle.
