Tomatoes on the Vine Revisited

I just completed the redo of this 18" x 24" painting of tomatoes on the vine. I put in more intensity in both the reds, yellows and green and added a touch of blue to the now blue gray background for a more warm vs, cool constrast. I adjusted the highlights on the tomatoes and imagined the yellow spaces as continents in a red sea covering globes viewed from space. The vine is mighty Atlas holding the worlds together.

The best way to easily see most of my paintings for sale is to go to my Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/bill.ives2 - and look at Photos and albums within Photos. I have three photo albums covering my art. One is for discounted pairings under $100.  The other is for most of the rest (over $100). The third is for paintings that I have either sold or ones that are not for sale. However, if anyone is interested in them I will paint another version for them on commission. I will ship anywhere and have shipped art works as far as Australia.

In New Orleans there are currently paintings hanging at two of my favorite New Orleans restaurants. One is  Riccobono's Panola Street Cafe. Here is a post describing the showing at Riccobono's. It is located at 7801 Panola Street (504 314-1810). You can also contact me to see more of them. You can also find my work at the Salvadorian restaurant, La Macarena located at 8120 Hampson St, New Orleans, just off Carrolton Ave. at Riverbend. Here is a post on it: New Paintings Are for Sale at La Macarena, New Orleans.  

My paintings are also for sale at the Community Commitment Center on Leonidas and Spruce. Part of the center is Stella's Cafe where you can get delicious drinks and food for very reasonable prices. The proceeds go to support the excellent work of Community Commitment Center, run by Nicole Bouie, as do a portion of the sales of the paintings. The center provides classes for children and adults and other programs including a summer camp. Here is post on the show - Paintings for Sale at Community Commitment Center New Orleans.

Painting of Van Morrison Jazz Fest 2019

Here is a 16" x 20" acrylic painting of Van Morrison. It is based on a photo I took at last Jazz Fest. He has long been a favorite since he introduced "Brown Eyed Girl" 52 years ago.

In New Orleans there are currently paintings hanging at three of my favorite New Orleans restaurants. One is Willie Mae’s Uptown. It is located at 7457 St. Charles Ave., New Orleans, 504-417-5424. Here is a post describing the showing at Willie Mae’s. Another is  Riccobono's Panola Street Cafe. Here is a post describing the showing at Riccobono's. It is located at 7801 Panola Street (504 314-1810). You can also contact me to see more of them. You can also find my work at the Salvadorian restaurant, La Macarena located at 8120 Hampson St, New Orleans, just off Carrolton Ave. at Riverbend. Here is a post on it: New Paintings Are for Sale at La Macarena, New Orleans.  

There are also two paintings as part of the permanent collection at Red Gravy, a wonderful downtown Italian restaurant at 125 Camp Street. (504) 561-8844. Here is a post about them: Red Gravy: Great New Orleans Brunch. Our friend, Spider Murphy, plays banjo at their weekend brunches. 

Painting of Spanish Profiteroles

Here is a 9" x 12" square painting of another of favorite desserts, profiteroles. We are now in Barcelona and I brought my paints and ten canvases so there will be more. 

The best way to easily see most of my paintings for sale is to go to my Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/bill.ives2 - and look at Photos and albums within Photos. I have three photo albums covering my art. One is for discounted pairings under $100.  The other is for most of the rest (over $100). The third is for paintings that I have either sold or ones that are not for sale. However, if anyone is interested in them I will paint another version for them on commission. I will ship anywhere and have shipped art works as far as Australia.

Updated Index to Cities and Towns with Restaurant Picks – November 2015

I have now provided restaurant picks by friends for an increasing number of cities and towns. I also do a few myself. This blog post serves as an index to them with links for easy access. I will continue to update this index as I add more places. It is past time to update it as I last posted the index on May 2010.

Why do I write about restaurant picks by friends when Zagat and other places have plenty of reviews for most cities? My reviews are by people I know and trust their tastes. I do not know the people in Zagat’s or Gourmet. etc. and I do not always agree with them even though I do use them as useful input. You just have to decide how much you trust me versus the “official” guides. I certainly do not pretend to be an expert but I also am not connected with any places or have an agenda except to give my opinion and those of people I trust. I just know what I like and the list is part of my personal knowledge management system. I often consult it myself went going on a holiday or business trip. I hope it helps you, also. Here is a post that explains it in more detail, Restaurant Reviews – Why I Blog Them. In this post I also show how I both agree and disagree with another ’official” reviewer, Gourmet Magazine.
