Fall Harvest

Realist Painting

This still life painting was produced during a very difficult time. Her grandson Jimmy Stump was diagnosed with cancer. Starr is not a stranger to illness her self. She was five years old when diagnosed with polio. The progression of this disease required extensive surgery when she turned ten. Starr spent two years in a full body cast. The discipline that causes her to be a great artist worked to heal her body. She still cycles 5 miles each day, plus a rigorous aerobic workout, and a diet of natural and healthy foods..


When you truly study Starr's work, one finds how emotional and meaningful her art is to her. Jimmy's cancer was in remission after surgery, a frustrating time. Will it return? How can I prevent it from ever coming back? This painting speaks.


A beautiful teapot full of warm Herb teas, grains, and natural wheat bread, the staff of life. As you study this still life painting, and all of the healthy foods, Starr's frustration, tears, her supplications are placed on canvas. Offering up that her grandson will be healed.


Painted masterfully, with perfecting composition nothing less would be good enough for Jimmy. One must wonder if the effort, time and standard for beauty found in STARR'S art is not a reflection of the reverence she pays to the messages she paints.
