Winsor & Newton Commission





Last July I was approached by Winsor & Newton and asked to do another painting of my lemons in a bowl (different arrangement and shadow on the bowl) to be used as a label for their new 'Fine Detail' canvas.
I was, of course, thrilled to even be asked by them and the thought that one of my paintings is used on one of their products is a very proud moment for me.
They even credit me on the label so I am very grateful to them.

More new paintings coming soon ... the usual 'they all come at once' posts that you are probably getting used to. Some tangerines coming up this time, ousting the lemons into second place ;-)

    Paul, Always lurking here and in constant awe at your skill with the brush. My first urge when I see a new piece is to reach out and touch that bowl or pear or ? Congratulations on the WN labels, they will sell lots of canvases. Although it takes lots more than a good support to do what you do, it's at least a start. Best regards.
