Painting peaches reminds me of that Presidents of United States of America song, “Peaches”. I used to jam that CD all the time.
Anyway, for a short time I was on a plum kick, but after yesterdays painting session I’ve moved on to peaches. These are paintings done on little 5×5 in. canvas’ that I stretched gallery-wrap-style over recycled wood panels. Very durable, cost efficient, and eco-friendly way to paint, that’s for sure.

I went in somewhat of a new direction with this most recent group of paintings. I started out by just praying small puddles of deep purple spray paint onto the canvas, and then building the painting around them. To make the painting work I found I had to use more toned down colors to allow the plums to stand out, resulting in these really quiet paintings, maybe with the exception of Plums 2 – the one in the middle.

Hey check out the new delicious paintings of my art twin, Emily Pelton. She’s an emerging Detroit artist, and someone whose work I’ve admired for years. Amazing stuff.
