Homage to Cezanne
“Homage to Cezanne” is part of the Still Life Series..I went against my inclination to show the bowl with the correct ellipse, but this is for Cezanne, who broke all the rules..
Acrylic and Mixed Media on 300lb Arches Paper..
Apples, pears, and plates
never move or talk back..
slow, long, arduous work
balance form with form..
color with harmonious color
portraits absent of emotion and personality…
nothing is more than a
conventional geometric starting point,
obsessed with unfulfilled
passions...excerpt..Cezanne

Thank you so much Joanne…I really like making things look ancient..I used the tipped forward image that Cezanne did often in his work…every time I look at the painting, I think the fruit are going to fall out of it…
