Josef Schuster, Still Life With Ornamental Objects

#PleinAirpril 2023 - COMPLETE

It's the first time I've FINISHED ONE so here's a celebratory stack of all of my work (in reverse chronological order, with the latest at the top):

Very little of these were painted on site, thanks to a combo of terrible Toronto spring weather (rain/hail, barely above freezing, windy as heck) and a busy personal schedule, but they were still *PAINTED* and I'm calling that a big win!

Have you been thinking of doing a monthly art challenge? Have you done one in the past? How did you find the experience?

What Does TERAVARNA’s Still Life Art Show Mean for Artists?

Still life art is probably one of the most underrated themes in the world of art. Many artists often look down upon it and do not consider it as a proper genre of art. However, TERAVARNA has been changing this narrative with its many still life art shows that it has been organizing on a regular basis. It is not only one of the most popular competitions they offer but also a very meaningful one to help artists get familiar with this theme of art. 

In this blog, we are going to discuss all the details of this art competition, including how you can participate, the entry fee, the prize, and all the other details that you would want to know.

What Do We Mean By Still Life Artworks?

When you create artwork of any non-living, non-mobile, or inanimate object, it is called a still life artwork. These still life works could be of a bowl of fruit, some floral arrangements, a breakfast table, a set of glasses, or anything else that you can think of. Based on your preference, you can make still life paintings, sculptures, graphic designs and so much more. 

For better understanding, you can refer to some of the very famous still life paintings by Clara Peeters, Paul Cézanne, Louise Moillon, Vincent van Gogh, Francisco Goya, and many others. These artists have given some of the best works in this genre and studying their art will give you a new perspective on still life. It will help you understand the different nuances of this theme and how you can make the best of it.

Bright Still Life Painting: Orchard Bounty on a Pedestal

Creating from color inspiration in oils and watercolors.

“Orchard Bounty on a Pedestal” 14″ x 11″ Oil on canvas $575 Approaching painting this still life was a bit scary. I incorporated a lot of different shapes and colors into the arrangement and I wasn’t so sure how it might all play out in a painting. Most of the inspiration came from the colors in the scarf draped over a dark red pillow in the background and a bunch of fresh fruit I had in my…

The Sense of Pleasure: A collection of still life paintings is a visually stunning collection of 71 European still life paintings dating from the 17th and 18th century and expresses the variety, abundance, nourishment, and pleasures nature has to offer.

Throughout this period still life painting became a mode of artistic expression strongly favored by an ever-growing wealthy middle class. In fact, the great masters of this technique came from Italy, France and the Netherlands, all countries rich in food, commerce and trade. The book is divided into six interpretations of man’s relationship to Nature. These categories are represented through paintings which characterize the human senses through careful depictions of animals and insects, and luscious portrayals of fruit and flowers. A unique school of art, the pieces in this collection of still life paintings were selected not only for their mastership but also richness in subject matter.
