Honoring the rich legacy of Parisian still lifes, this artist decided to feature the colorful pop of fresh oranges paired with a bottle of Grand Marnier, an orange flavored French liquor. The piece is done in an impressionistic style that fits right at home in the corner of a kitchen nook or dining room. The simple metal frame contains a graceful pattern of leaves that remind the viewer of a balmy Mediterranean countryside. 
It’s the truth: life would not exist without light. From the greatest to the smallest, light is essential for most living creatures on Earth to survive.
One of an artist’s greatest achievements is depicting the mastery of light in paintings. There’s no such thing as a pigment in “light” color, so painters must diligently express the illusion of light by employing a complexity of colors that depict placements of shadows, sunny areas, reflections, and so on to the naked eye.
Majestic and awe-inspiring, Lorraine Dey’s acrylic paintings harness nature’s extraordinary moments on the canvas. Her award winning work is showcased far and wide in the United States, Canada, and even Finland.
