Coleus still life is a small format oil on canvas painting I’ve made recently. Currently working on my Ostia Antica series and some other projects I’ve noticed the coleus on the window shelf. I guess at the time there has been that special light in the room, entering the room just at the angle as it does on late November afternoons, reflecting reddish nuances of some clouds on the teal blue sky. A late hour of the day that has accentuated the pink parts of the plant leaves. And I am quiet happy I’ve managed to catch the palette of the coleus foliage here, together with the fragility of the young stems. Just a small canvas, but dear to my heart, remembering the coleus I’ve got this summer.
