Still Life from my Studio
Still Life from my Studio is my new canvas. It has been a rather dark cloudy morning, so I have decided to set up this cheerful still life just to bring some colors to my studio. Some red tomatoes, three onions, a pomegranate, a pear and an orange, and a blue glass vase contrasting the empty gilded wooden frame. And my brushes in a Japanese vase with some green decor. Which has this time interested me more than the color scheme has been the empty space. The equilibrium between what has been told and what holds the composition in the space. The eternal juxtaposition between the white color and all the colors of the day.
Brushes and Flowers with Red Basket Painting
Brushes and Flowers with Red Basket Painting is just a small vignette from my studio table. I’ve been working on some paintings, as usually I’ve put a handful of brushes in an old jug to have them ready. As I cannot live without flowers there have been some fresh twigs full of white blossoms, just in case I’d paint them. An old ceramic basket where I keep some important unimportant items I love has, who knows how, found it’s way to be just near the jug with flowers. Working on a recent canvas I’ve wanted to reach for a brush as I’ve suddenly noticed this still life just in front of me, it’s been so perfectly real I knew I’ve wanted to paint it. In a moment the wet canvas on the easel has been changed with a new one and I’ve hurried to catch this simple vignette reminding me that each day consists of at least some magical moments, moments when we can see trough the light of everyday to embrace a small particle of eternity……
