Tomatoes and Corn {Bountiful Observations no. 30}

Garden Harvest

{8" x 8" (20.3 x 20.3 cm) – oil on canvas panel}
Sold
Framed painting: $300.00 starting bid + S&H

One of the best gifts of summer are vine ripened tomatoes gathered from your own plants or maybe a neighbor's or even the farmer's market... they all taste extra sweet and juicy.  I love getting my hands dirty tending the garden and savoring the rewards of all the effort invested months ago is worth it.

Do you keep a summer garden?  Has it been a productive year so far?

I really like this, Liz. It's a little bit of different subject matter for you, lately, and I can see the - I don't know - refreshment (?) you feel painting something new. Just a gorgeous summer painting!

Thanks Sarah :) It was a fun change and very rewarding because after the painting was completed we had the tomatoes for dinner...
