Women at Lunch Before Covid Painting

I was at this luncheon with my women friends which was what inspired me. The light, the colors, the food--all were exciting to paint. It was part of a series of restaurant scenes I painted in 2018. The 8 x 8 size was appealing and they were all framed in a black 9 x 9 frame. Now that many if not all restaurants are not using indoor eating, this painting has much more meaning that when I first painted it. It recalls a time when many women friends enjoyed meeting for lunch frequently not fearing any illness and enjoying the closeness at the dinner table. These restaurant paintings reflect a moment of time in the past when things were very different. Hopefully these precious moments of women meeting for lunch indoors will return. This 9 x 9 black frame is wired on the back for instant hanging.
