Editor: Here we have Leonard McComb’s *Apple Blossom II*. It feels delicate, almost ephemeral in its rendering. What do you make of the artist’s approach? Curator: It's as if McComb is trying to capture not just the bloom, but its very essence, that fleeting moment of perfection. Notice how the swirling lines create this gentle vibration, like the air around the blossoms is shimmering. It’s a very intimate, almost spiritual observation, don't you think? Editor: I hadn't considered the spiritual angle, but that makes sense given the soft, radiant quality. Thanks! Curator: My pleasure! It is amazing what you discover once you start looking...
