Are There Picnics in Heaven?

One of four food and floral still lives created in the spring and early summer of 2024. I wanted to create an overwhelming sensation of light in this painting. That feeling of when the sun comes out from behind a cloud and the world just glows. Along with this I also played with a layering of patterns and dots. With the loose tile pattern as the base, then a zig-zag cloth on top of that with dots, that are then reflected in the sesame seeds on the bagel, the seeds on the strawberries, and the stamen of the rose. My personal challenge with this mini series was the keep things loose and in a more spirited impulsive sense. I wouldn't say I achieved this goal.
