Stillife with chinese vase (SOLD)

In this still life, I sought to create a composition that celebrates the richness of textures, materials, and light. The golden samovar serves as the focal point, its polished surface reflecting subtle variations of light and color. Surrounding it are carefully chosen objects—a porcelain jar, a delicately embroidered cloth, and a golden plate filled with dried fruits and nuts—that evoke a sense of timelessness and cultural heritage.

The arrangement is anchored by the contrast between the luminous objects and the deep, dark background, which creates a sense of depth and intimacy. The interplay of warm tones, from the golden hues of the metal to the soft orange of the fruit, is balanced by the cool purple drapery, adding both harmony and vibrancy to the scene.

This painting is an exploration of how everyday objects, when illuminated and arranged thoughtfully, can transcend their utilitarian purpose to tell a story of elegance, tradition, and the fleeting nature of beauty. My intention was to invite the viewer into a quiet moment of contemplation, where light and shadow reveal the hidden qualities of these familiar forms. Tellus Vituz
