Large Nail Clipper

Piece description from the artist

Nail clippers are not something most artists use as a subject matter. That's part of what made me want to paint them so much. Mostly I like the way they look, the moving parts, lines from all the grooves and the shadow created. Their complete lack of color gave me the freedom to create a composition in color from my imagination. Brilliant red, lavender, pink and green take over the canvas and bring it to life.
