Traditional realism approach to contemporary subject. Solvent-free methods used in this oil painting on paper, mounted on birch panel, finished with cold wax medium varnish. The image itself directly reproducing and reinterpreting the "small gift with purchase" or lagniappe, of the delivery photograph. In brilliant sunlight, the cast shadow implied figure documents the delivery with cell phone camera. The source photograph is inherently distorted as function of both the speed of the act of taking the photograph and the short distance between the lens and the package. The lines of bricks and mortar on the plane of the porch become a dynamic grid. Pacific Northwest Forest palette, nonchalantly, silently a commentary on relentless consumerism. And yet, still the free gift of light falls. Second in a series of ten.
