“Still-Life with Jug and Lemons”
Acrylic on Canvas 23.5cm x 28cm
Frame dimensions 38cm x 40cm
A lightly textured paint surface reveals layers of underpainting with multiple glazes adding depth and lustre. The spode jug rests lightly on a vibrant yet subdued table of a satisfying aqua hue. Warm and cool brushstrokes give a dynamic push-pull effect reminiscent of Van Gogh’s approach to surface and colour, while careful observation of the aged lemons results in a satisfyingly realistic depiction of an intimate and whimsical domestic moment.
The artist has signed the piece on the reverse of the canvas.
