About MeThe artist's interest in cool harmonies of white can be seen in this composition. White azaleas and tulips are set on a white tablecloth against a white chair and rug. Colour is restricted to the lemons on the table and the patterned rug and furniture behind. For Redpath, colour had far more intensity when placed against white.

Collections Wall

I like this painting because it reminds me of my favourite video game, The Sims, when my sims leave lots of cups and random items from their inventory (lemons, flowers) on the tables.
