A New Painting: STILL LIFE

"Still Life" focusses on the glasses of wine:  a metaphor for the comforts of urban existence; a comment on the communality of sharing with others, who must certainly be nearby, perhaps across the table, not visible to us.



"Still Life"   oil on canvas    32" x 28"

Our observation is fractured by the shards of street life that invade the drinker's calm and composed demeanor.

Passing moments are captured and composed into large and small rhythms and passages of color that resonate on the canvas long after the original inspiration has ceased to be.

"Still Life" is a painting that was recently finished and is part of an ongoing series that I refer to as REFLECTIONS.
