Fragrances edge

On a cloth-draped table, a bowl of pears and peaches sits beside two dark bottles, cherries, an orange-fleshed melon sliced into wedges, a pomegranate and apricots. Behind them a squat clay vase holds a bouquet of red poppy-like flowers and yellow blossoms, with blue-violet mountains rising in the distance beyond the table's edge.

Saturated oranges, golds and reds dominate the fruit and flowers, painted with bold, chunky strokes and heavy texture on the melon's rind, while the mountain backdrop is rendered in flatter, cooler blues and greens. The dense clustering of ripe produce and bright blossoms creates a lush, vibrant abundance.
