Art in 3s - Triptychs

When friends meet me or phone, they often ask what I'm doing... what I'm working on these days. So, here's what I've been doing...

With the Christmas season fast approaching, I am getting together with a few other artists to host a Holiday Open House and Studio Sale. (Particulars and invitations will be sent as we get closer to the date.)

In the interest of having new work to view and buy at Christmastime, I've been working on quite a few small pieces and you, dear reader, will be the first to know.

As of today, I've completed three triptychs from a series I've titled, "Progression." The first from tomato to Bloody Mary, the second from lemon to lemon meringue pie and the third from lime to Margarita.

Now, I'm working on three more triptychs - pomegranate, banana, and avocado - which I'll post as soon as they're finished. What do you think so far? Do you have suggestions for future "Progressions?"
