Watercolor still life painting of garlic. Five white heads of fresh garlic, settled on a table are posed in a restful, fluid design, as if waiting their turn to be stored away or used to flavor the next meal. In the shadows and among the tiny roots is the hint of a vivid blue purple.

11.5 x 14.5 Watercolor, framed in a natural color solid wood frame. 

Donna MacLure has no formal art training, only constant enrollment in classes and workshops with many local teachers whom she admires. These include Ben Macomber, Al Albertson, Gail Rose, Paul George and Nancy Howell among others. She paints nearly every day with an emphasis on color.  She is drawn to familiar everyday objects, so there is never a shortage of subjects to paint. She enjoys painting on location but she does most of her work in her studio in Wrentham, Massachusetts.  This is Donna's first time donating to the Attleboro Arts Museum Auction.
