'A is for Apple'

Oil on linen panel

I have had some vintage wooden typefaces for
years. Some are large (6 inches high), and
some are much smaller, and I have always loved
them and wanted to do something with them.
When I got my apples this fall, the idea to
incorporate them into a painting with the
typeface came into mind, and here is the result.
If you would like to see more of my work,
interested in purchasing any of my paintings you see
here on this blog, please contact me.

Gorgeous piece!! The apples are so realistic and the wood is so beautifully painted...Wonderful work, Claire.!
What an inspired use of the typeface, Claire! I think this is beautiful and I love the rustic period feel of it too. And suddenly I'm wanting apple pie...
Another gorgeous piece, Claire. This would be such a wonderful series with the letters...hmmm!!
I see those in antique stores all the time and I think they're fabulous. Love how you used it in a painting!
