This still life celebrates the simple beauty of homegrown produce. With warm tones and detailed brushwork, artist Steve Boggs captures the essence of his summer harvest of two tomatoes. The subtle lighting adds a sheen to the fruit and creates a sense of freshness.
About the Artist
Artist Steve Boggs captures the interplay of light and form in his layered, atmospheric, and still-life paintings. His artistic journey started with an accident. "I stumbled upon a book by an oil painter, and something clicked in my head - for the first time, I looked at a real professional painting and could see how it was done," says Steve. In his works, he seeks to balance realism with creative interpretation. Steve paints in a spacious and organized studio above his garage in Hendersonville, Tennessee. When not creating art, he enjoys perfecting Neapolitan and Roman pizzas, cooking Mediterranean and Southern barbecue, and continually honing his guitar skills.

Artist Jinny Tomozy presents a realistic still life of vibrant and colorful produce - an intimate look at the gardener's prize. "I can not resist the bounty of a fresh harvest," says Jinny. The saturated hues of the fruits that have been nurtured all summer finally come to reveal themselves. The shine of the plump globes displays a dance of highlights among the gathering.
About the Artist
Artist Jinny Tomozy reveals the most tender aspects of nature through the sculptural forms of flowers.
