Still life Oil painting

 

“On the floor”

 

This was a simple setup of an orange. Oil on canvas board 9” by 12”

The children wanted to use the blender today, which got me a little nervous since is the first time they are allowed to use it, expecting having blue berries, strawberry smoothie all over the walls.

Wile drinking the mixed berries, asked them if I could borrow one of the oranges to paint, they all agreed at the same time, and say uhuum… and this still life was born. .

The  goal for this one was to incorporate  movement with in the flower by adding extra petals, abstraction and form combined with high color loaded with energy and intensity, the flower was positioned off center for a better view.

But not all this is just mainly technical there’s a lot of feelings in to them, painting just to paint…don’t think so… But painting with feelings, good energy, perhaps memories or conversations… makes it more interesting.

~The artist in a room full of people he or she is the one in a corner making notes, sketching and observing… everything is interesting an never boring.

Are Artists Copyist?

Are all Artist copyist? when I ask this question it became a personal matter' so not to be blind about the motive of my question, I rather go with the facts then to continue, an rather not give answer to my own opinion, As to be Fair for some he or she might be thinking the same. A keen interest in the 90's about Vangoghs Life, whom it said to be known as the father of post impressionism or impressionism era'. He have had an acquire knowledge and admiration for true Asian Art and some of hes great works are of Irises, wish are known to be One of the Most popular flowers In Asian culture.'



Well he indeed got the concept, but applied what was important for him, to continue on and develop and Original Artwork, not to be compared to anyone else, and perhaps this is what made him unique' and today a Master' in he's own Right. It is true that he wasn't the only one, For Monet, to paint in the canvas was as to capture form and engage in what he called , true unaltered" color or as much as possible'.
So as to Say and conclude with this blog, Rather would leave it to the judgment of the creative minds to answer the question instead.
