Still Life With Lemons and Pail


Oil on board 24X12
I found this marvellous setup on the Wet Canvas Reference Image Library.
Frank Sinatra once said that singing a Cole Porter song made his job easy- the composition was so good that he could just concentrate on interpreting it .
That was the case here. This masterful composition let me concentrate on using paint to translate the forms as I saw them.
I don't know who the photographer is, but whoever you are.. congratulations on this masterpiece and thanks!
