  1. These are exquisite Paul. I especially appreciate the little drama suggested by the pear & glass standing dangerously on the edge of a (table?).
    Great northern moody palette too!

  2. I agree with Pierre about the drama of the impending tumble off the edge. But I keep coming back to that haunting reflection in the glass, and the shape echoed again on the left of the glass. This is so perfectly balanced in so many ways. A koan.

  4. Impossible!

    These paintings are so damn photorealistic. I don't know how you're doing this.

    The pear with the glass of water looks especially amazing.

    What a super talent you are!
