Cypress Trees - by Chanan Mazal
Originally uploaded by Mazalart / Chanan Mazal
This painting signed the beginning of a very productive few weeks before my recent trip to the USA. I investigated approaches to this cypress tree theme, over and over. My ulterior motive for posting this again, is that it is a link to my flickr.com page. Links are supposed to be good for Google results, so I wish myself search engine success.

 

Unmatched Chairs - Gouach painting by Chanan Mazal

כסאות לא תואמים - ציור גואש של חנן מזל

46 x 61 cm (18" x 24") on 100% cotton Arches paper 

Pomegranates, Oranges and Figs
Acrylic on canvas. Sold
More of the fruit series - two with an ancient association with the Promised Land, and one modern. (Actually they are native to India, and not to Florida and Sicily.)
Each fruit was painted over a ground of it's complementary color. The figs were a greater color challenge, as they ripen from green to purple.
