None of these are done, but good places to start when my life calms down!

Ha! I had painted my apples as an ‘homage to rose’ but they are now destined for the trash. These are so beautiful and I hope things settle down for you soon. Until then I’m glad to see you finding joy in painting the apples!
These are beautiful Rose… I feel like I’m walking through the orchard. Your handling of the warms and cools, opaques and transparent in the foliage is so well done. My favorite is the fourth painting. I know you have finished, but I love the design, and the apple shapes as they converge into that cluster are wonderful!
Rose, you have such a connection to nature-these really show that. I like them all, but the deeper colors in the last one really drew me in. Beautiful!
The driplines on the first piece gives me a fleeting/ephemeral feeling. Fade to white…
But the execution of the tree structure seems to promise stability.
For what it’s worth, I’m not so sure that the flux that is life ever calms down much.
Rose, I love these…especially the first and last ones. It’s so difficult to get an all over design with a good composition. ..I’ve tried with flowers many times. You’ve managed to do it very well.

I feel like I’m in the orchard, apples will always remind me of you.

Can I assume trees in your yard? Apple season, wonderful time. I like the richness/depth of the colors in the last pic.
