Original artwork description:

I heard my wife talking about buying oranges and not being able to find them. She relaxed after I explained the oranges were important, high paid, fashion models. :)

"3 Oranges.1" is 1 of 3 paintings of the same subject. In the work ".1", the overall painting is handle roughly. Choppy strokes of color on color move over the entire canvas unifying subjects and background. As I apply strokes of color, the forms merge with each other and the surrounding colors. This is a greatly rewarding style for me to paint in. The finished work looks very quick to paint when the actual strokes are very thought out.
