These coneflowers (echinacea) and gladiolus popped up in my front yard, discovered the summer of 2016 after moving into my new home. Fertilization and care caused them to burst with color and height in the summer. I "planted" myself and my easel with canvas in the midst of them. As I spent hours painting, several neighbors wandered by to watch and talk, making for a lovely painting session. Bees and bugs hummed around me as I painted, but they, fortunately, were oblivious to my presence as they frittered from bud to bud. It was like being unseen in the jungle, inspired by the extraordinary beauty and peace of the day.

Many thanks to the collector for purchasing "Taylor Jug With Pear." Oil on archival board, 8 X 10", SOLD. These old jugs have such character - imagining their history, the hands that have held them, how and where they were created - takes me back to a different time and place. #stilllifepainting #stilllife #jugpainting #Taylorjugpainting #catherinetwomey1 #oilpaintingstilllife #collectorofart #artcollector #artcollection #fineart https://fineartamerica.com/featured/taylor-jug-with-pear-catherine-twomey.html
