Table, Napkin and Fruit — Fine Art

A cloth and pieces of fruit sit on a table in Table, Napkin and Fruit. The paint sits in short separate strokes that build the forms.

You can see the pressure of the brush in the folds of the cloth and the rounded fruit. Paul Cézanne worked in this way, breaking the scene into patches of colour. A fine art print set in a frame with a back panel holds the image flat.

The matte surface keeps the colours steady under a lamp. It fits a dining room wall where the table scene reads from the doorway. The cloth and fruit settle into the room as a quiet table scene.
