Still Life Show Rollout: White Asparagus

White Asparagus

White Asparagus | 12 x 16 | Oil on Linen on Birch Panel

This bunch of white asparagus is from one of those wonderful markets in Paris. When we visit Paris we always stay in hotel where there is no kitchen. We cannot cook meals while there. In addition to that we generally find shopping for most things boring. So why do we spend so much time strolling the outdoor markets? Because they are gorgeous! No one displays the luscious beauty of fresh produce better than the French. The displays are usually very simple but  so very tastefully done. And the vegetables and fruit are touched with that certain mystery that comes with true beauty.

White Asparagus will be at the upcoming show at M Gallery of Fine Art, Sarasota, FL. For availability and price, please Crystal Wagner 914 954-8774 or write to info@mgalleryoffineart.com .

    Michael, such gorgeous work. I agree with you on the European markets. It’s a shame we have to go halfway around the world to find elegantly displayed produce (especially with leaves and stems still attached)!

    [...] Este manojo de espárragos blancos es de uno de esos mercados maravilloso en París. Cuando visitamos París siempre nos quedamos en el hotel donde no hay cocina. No podemos cocinar las comidas, mientras que hay. Además de que por lo general de compras para encontrar la mayoría de cosas aburridas.
