Sometimes seeing the fruits on drawings or paintings wakes up your appetite but when you eat them they the feeling if different. Probably our imagination builds up such a picture of joy and our brain wakes up the memory of the taste that produces endorphins, so we enjoy it more. Like I am always excited about Christmas and waiting for it is the most enjoyable time for me and not real Christmas event. Have you ever thought about it?
You sketch is really beautiful, I like how you did the shadow area under the grapes, that give the volume to the objects. Very nice work and appetizing photograph :)
Greetings Stef1,
What a lovely, thoughtful comment. Very kind of you to drop by for a cuppa. ^__^
Yes, I have thought about such things.
Let's see......if one were to categorise the pears as food for the body's requirements and Christ-mas as a day chosen to highlight the birth of Christ......when Christ-mas is actually every day, we might get a little closer to categorical thinking which would help us remain in a thinking mode over an emotive mode. Living from anticipation to anticipation can keep us off balance....with its highs and resulting lows. Then we begin to see things/events as they truly are and surprisingly the result is an even greater capacity for life/enjoyment of life.
Thank you for your query and for opportunity to think on these things. ^__^
Wishing you and yours a lovely week end!
Cheers! from bleujay.
NB Thank you for your kind artistic words regarding the work....always appreciated. ^__^
