Working from the same still life as "Three Apples," I added this screen to give the background some interest, which works well on this tall, portrait-oriented board. I like the contrast of the geometric shapes against the softness of the cloth - the horizontal bands of the screen with the round apples set off by the draping fabric. Just a quick note: unlike the masonite boards and stretched canvas, this art board (which is like a very heavy bristol board) will need to be framed (preferably behind glass) to hang.

Three Apples & Screen
