A July Citrus Harvest With Candy Melon

Another piece inspired by my Tuesday trips to the green grocers. This piece evolved from the purchase of an apparently new variety of melon, the Candy melon, and a harvest of citrus from my garden. Including Lisbon lemon, lemonade lemon, blood orange and grapefruit. The melon was absolutely delicious, I highly recommend you give it a try if you get the chance. A bit of summery flavour during our Southern winter!

This piece is painted using Australian made, artist quality paints, and is beautifully textured.

Dominika is an artist living in the Yarra Valley. Drawing inspiration from her garden and the beautiful surrounds, she has a particular passion for representing house plants, flowers and treasures from her various collections. 'I find inspiration everywhere and am influenced by nature, my garden, and the changing seasons. I find there is beauty in every stage of the life cycle, whether it be the closed bud of a flower, a deteriorated sea shell or an autumn leaf. My main challenge being that time is limited and of all my ideas, only some will find their way to paper! My art practice is my meditation, my connection to the earth, to my family, and at times it is all encompassing in the most beautiful of ways'.
