I am pleased to have been invited to show a grouping of my paintings (including the one above) in the John F. Peto Museum exhibition, Still Life Meets Trompe l'œil: The Art of Noticing, on view from Sept 20 to Dec 13, 2026. This exhibition explores the question, "What's the difference between still life and trompe l'œil?" If you're not familiar, George Stave (July 29, 1923 - August 26, 2011) was a famous American realist painter and colorist known for still life, landscape, and interior painting. To see the exhibition, you can schedule a Saturday or Sunday tour between 1-4pm here. Private or group tours are also available. To schedule call 732-929-4949 or email info@petomuseum.org.

If you enjoy this painting, you may also like to see a bunch of my paintings in my "the light / the shade" series inspired by the poetry of Robert Lax.
