Still Life with Bananas, and other scenes

Paintings of still life you might see in a museum: a goblet and a pear glowing, oysters and a lemon cut in the light just so, a pale girl posing on a chair with a feather.

Here, amongst our very specific life style of living off our bikes in a strange and tropical place, I captured still life scenes that arose organically. I share them now, the bicycle portion of this trip finished. I really enjoy that, in the simplicity of certain items at rest together, or others observed in their place, a story and explanation of an experience can exist.

I've been capturing them over our journey, and share them in this post.

Pear nectar in roadside heat (El Copey)
Still life with bananas and sun gear
Regiment of water bottles awaiting the nightly filling
Self portrait with chair (local home selling use of baño, Barranquilla)
Still life outside internet cafe (Santa Veronica)
