Still Life paintings are some of my favorites to do especially when beautiful fruit, flowers or objects you love are available to me as the artist. I would like the art viewer to smell the flowers or feel the softness of their petals or paint the fruit so that you can almost taste the sweetness and see the beauty of its ripeness. Painting a favorite vase or bowl records this piece into history for your family as well as your patrons. Providing art for historical information is one of the most important processes of being an artist.
