Two pears rest on a simple white napkin, their organic forms contrasting with the geometric precision of the surface beneath them. The composition is minimal, yet rich in subtle details—the play of light and shadow, the warm, muted tones, the quiet balance between objects and space.
This painting was inspired by the beauty of the everyday. A moment of stillness, a fleeting arrangement of light and form that might otherwise go unnoticed. By isolating these pears, the focus shifts to their quiet presence, their imperfections, their weight within the scene.
I hope viewers take a moment to slow down, to appreciate the simplicity and harmony in ordinary things. Perhaps it sparks a memory, a sense of nostalgia, or just a quiet appreciation for the play of light on familiar objects.
I always use oil paint for its richness of color and buttery texture. The soft transitions and deep shadows created by oil allow for a sense of depth and atmosphere, bringing even the simplest subjects to life.
