"What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us." ~Thoreau
This painting is part of my ongoing "present moment" series. One of the first in the series, Blue and White Sake Cup (present moment) (2015), has some explanation about it. Also, if you're interested, Henry David Thoreau, American essayist, poet, and philosopher, was born today in 1817.
If you enjoy this painting, you may also like to see still life with copper pot and pears (the light, the shade) (2018) [also available as a signed art print HERE], Pecorino Busti al Pistaccio and Bosc Pear from Testaccio Market, Rome (Italy 2017 painting #3), South Korean Bowl with Asian Pears (larger painting) (2017), Bosc Pear (The Green Stripe - La Raie Verte) (2014), Two Bosc Pears (2013), or a bunch of my paintings of pears. If you want to read some other quotes I've posted, those can be found here.
