A table supports a toppled paper bag of fruit, strewn directly on the table or on a white cloth. In the background is an empty vase. The wooden furniture is so shiny that fruit reflects off of its surfaces The light source is unclear, but a curtain…

The painting captures the open fields of Wallkill on a spring day. Abernathy’s thick brush strokes depict a tree on the left side of the midground with mountains in the background. Beyond the tree is a tan field, its color suggesting a recent…

In this still life, there are various objects placed on a brown table. Towards the left end of the table, we see a small container of ink standing next to a dip pen and a journal on the opposite end of the table. Towards the center, there is a…
