It's that time of year again! The Tomato Festival is right around the corner...August 12th. Time to get the paintings ready. My biggest hurdle is finding a whimsical note to my work. It just isn't in me to paint tomatoes walking hand in hand...or Godzilla tomatoes climbing tall buildings. Here's what I came up with this year: Aaaaand for the "up and coming" fruit/vegetable? This may qualify as whimsey:

I think they look great! I don't know about the other event, but it is also nice. I can see these in people's homes.

Thanks, Seth! All 3 are for the East Nashville Tomato Art Fest. There is a special room for paintings of hopeful fruits and vegetables who long for their own festival 😜

Why is the whimsical carrot piece priced while the tomatoes are not? I really really like the tomatoes!

I hadn't planned to publish any of the prices...don't know how that happened! Glad you like them!

I like your tomatoes, they're as much a study of the hands (good job by the way) as they are of the tomatoes, interesting contrast!

Hello! My name is Wendy and I am passionate about oil painting! Whether in the studio or out in Mother Nature, I get lost in the experience of capturing on canvas the moment and the feel of what I am painting. I pour my love and energy into every single piece of artwork and I hope it shows! This blog is a place where I can use words to talk about art, painting, life, faith, things that make me laugh, and things that inspire. I love every response, so don't be shy about leaving a comment...Archives
