Another Tomato Art Painting

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Another hot one today. I don’t knop about you, but I’m about done with the heat.

Back to another piece for the upcoming Tomato Art Festival on August 9. This one is called “Tomato with a Pearl Earring,” with humble apologies to Ver Meer. I get a kick out of putting tomatoes into unexpected and slightly absurd situations. These kind of paintings also give me a chance to analyze and learn from the great masters. Hopefully, I came close – but only close – to the original
This one will be available at the Festival and the Preview Party the night before.

Hope you enjoy the painting. Stay hydrated and avoid heat problems. Thanks.
