“Papayas”

Enjoy this lush oil painting of papayas, which captures the vibrant hues and irresistible allure of this tropical fruit. The red, juicy, ripe papayas practically jump off the canvas, while the soft spots and signs of rotting convey a sense of fleeting beauty and ephemeral nature. The bright colors and stark contrast in the piece are sure to capture the eye. This piece was inspired by my deep love for the fruits of Florida and their work in agroforestry, resulting in a truly intimate portrayal of papayas.
