A variety of lines compliment one another as they dance across the confines of the multiple canvases that make up the whole of Simple Still Life. With an interesting sense of perspective, subtle, yet striking coloration, and a very unique composition, this piece will provide a lasting sense of enjoyment for everyone who encounters it. This original canvas painting depicts a still life, as the title suggests, and a rather spare one at that. In the foreground several vases sit upon a table. In front of these vases several flowers are spread out across the wood. The colors of the foreground are dominated by neutral overtones, though the flowers are a shadowed shade of violet. There is a strong sense of distance that the artist establishes between the objects of the foreground and background. This is achieved through careful shaping and shading of objects in all sectors of the painting. The background is dominated by a number of flat objects, however, not the full, dimensional objects found in the foreground. The objects present in the background mirror those found in the foreground, only exist as simple outlines rather than complete, vivid objects. These peripheral subjects are done in thick black lines that expand from top to bottom of the piece. The background is a shade of cream with strong emphasis on brown hues, this creates a nice parallel between all the objects arranged in Simple Still Life. The overall effects of viewing this painting are of serenity and simplicity. This unique piece of canvas artwork is a definite homage to clean lines and traditional paintings, and will leave the classical enthusiast with a great sense of satisfaction upon viewing.
The design of Simple Still Life contributes to intensity of the lines and overall impact of the painting. This piece is comprised of three separate canvas panels. Each of these three canvas panels is of the very same size and shape as all the others, creating cohesion and further enhancing the feelings of harmony throughout the painting. The stark gaps between each piece create a strong sense of form, and contrast the rounded shapes that create the subjects.
