Florida Citrus: "Orange Ripe and Ready"

Here is painting #2 for my Passion PraiseTM Collection (I mentioned last blog)...capturing "(all) creation at it's peak", as if, shouting praise to God! This 10"x 8" painting was part of the exhibit: "Celebrating Citrus" at Comma Gallery in Orlando last month. Again--as with "Lime Hanging Heavy" (posted below), my reference was "ripe and ready to eat oranges" from a tree in my Dad's backyard! Actually, the lime & orange paintings go perfect together--color, size and frames--on purpose.

The originals are now available, and as prints--contact me here or through my web site www.revelationart.org . Very shortly my Revelation Art web site will be updated, where I'll have a Passion PraiseTM page--but right now these paintings are only shown on my blog.

Yesterday I received an email: "Please blog more, I want to see more". Hmmm, not sure who the sender was...that request along with the urging of a best friend, "fabulous kim" has convinced me to "get on it"...daily--if possible :) And really--above everything, for the glory of God...

Oh, and take a look at Kim's fabulous blog: Fabulous Alert when you ask the question, where did you get that? It's great--enjoy it!

My reflection: I love painting nature...thank you Lord!
