Fantastic luminous effect captured in the lemons and reflections! You are a master.

Anthony Mottram 25 Nov 2005

You have mastered your understanding of your subject to perfection Emily. A mammoth achievement within itself, you have also mastered, likewise to perfection, your skills and abilities in portrayal. From such mundane items, springs forth unmistakeable Beauty and the desire to partake of your offerings. Within such Simplicity of Subject lies a Great Complexity of Surface Analysis. Lemons, soft yet wrinkled, lying upon the cool surface of the hard glass plate. The grains of salt, scattered and yet focussed. The lemon light bouncing onto the wooden table top via the plate, so far as to gently interfere with the light at the bottom of the glass. Water, liquids within the Solids, Distortion within Definition, Surface texture within Lineal definition. A great pleasure to have viewed this work Emily. My very best wishes to you, Lazarus.

Like the composition, would have prefered the amber tequila to set it off, perhaps the worm in the glass too
