I just read that this coming November will see the 150th anniversary of Darwin’s Origin of Species. I didn’t paint this because of that. I honestly didn’t pay much attention to all of the books I have here in the studio. Turns out one is a well preserved edition from 1892.

    Hi! Chris Stott,
    Chris Stott said,”I just read that this coming November will see the 150th anniversary of Darwin’s Origin of Species. I didn’t paint this because of that…”

    What a “wonderful” coincidence…

    …By the way,I think that a “quiet beauty” is very much presence in your painting entitled Origin, but yet it “speak volumes”

    Thanks, for sharing!
    DeeDee ;-D

    It would have been funny if your pear in this painting were an apple. Playing off Evolution vs Creationism.
    Love your work!
