The original title for this painting was going to be "Butternut and Leek" because that's what I meant to buy. The thing is I had never bought a leek before, I didn't really know what one looked like...so I trusted Albertson's when they told me that this fennel was a leek.
This is how cooking dinner went that night:
"Zach can you google how to chop a leek?" "wait, my leek looks nothing like that"...
This one is definitely my favorite of the recent pear paintings. I spent yesterday putting the finishing touches on a much larger panel. I'm very excited for my medium sized panels to get here, I'm a little tired of the larger sizes. I was also working on my book jacket cover that I'm donating for an upcoming fundraiser here. So far it's turned out much better than I expected! I'll post pictures...
