Pineapple was inspired by a pineapple I bought at the store. I set it up on my marble pedestal table and let my imagination take me away. I then imagined a medley of fruit surrounding it. An orange, a mango, some cherries and wedges of sliced pineapple filled the crevices of space. The brilliance of combining fresh tangy flavors with a tropical blue and yellow background allows my pineapple to radiate a sort of warmth. The brightness of the colors and depth of texture makes this a one of a kind piece and adds a magnificent splash of color to any empty space.
Pineapple was created in my studio. I sculpted the image with a pallet knife and rich, vibrant oil paints, using my high relief method. The image is wrapped around the edge, creating a finished look. This allows the piece to remain unframed. If the owner so desires, it may still be framed. The measurements are 11 X 14 inches and the depth is 1.5 inches.
Thank you for reading my blog about Pineapple. I enjoyed writing to you as always! Take care and allow color and brilliance to flow into your life!

i really enjoy the 3d quailty of your work. do you do this proffessionally?
Thank you, yes I do this professionally. I work out of my studio in Lancaster, PA. Most of my paintings are created with a pallet knife. I use a high relief method to give my pieces that 3d look. I also have some more detailed paintings that are created in a traditional manner. My sculptural background is combined with my love of painting. It has allowed me to develop my own unique style. I do commission work as well. I am always up for a challenge! I have a website which is http://www.originalsbyparis.com.
