Still LIfes

Among the most beautiful paintings that exist are Still Lifes, which depict every day scenes that are somehow magical because of content, color and composition. The Dutch Masters made particularly incredible scenes utilizing the art form.

Just beyond our senses lies an invisible but wondrous world of the fluid forms that are created in our every day life and objects that project the air flow, turbulence and density of all the objects we normally see and think of as solid.

Science and physics in particular, has shown us that matter as we know it is far from solid, and that our perception of it is based on the limitations of our senses and our perception of size and space.

Everything we know and see in our life’s that is solid to our touch is full of “Space”. That space allows air, fluids and different wavelengths of light to actually flow through these items and ourselves.

Because of this we can realize how we are part of everything as the same air, fluids and light are flowing through everything we perceive as solid. And knowing and realizing th3e fact that the objects we see and we ourselves are not solid, we may consider everything as something fluid, particles that flow but remail together by their own gravity and attractions. Looking like a school of fish or flock of birds that remain as a group no matter how chaotic their movement as a whole may be.

My Still Life paintings peer beyond the veil of our perceptions and display the fluidity of matter, based on density, temperature and the flow of air or fluid around them, these majestic forms take place just outside our viewing capabilities.

While earlier works I have done depicted this as fractal, I have come to understand that while mathematical, the forms are much more fluid, turbulent and dream like.

In the paintings I have used eggs to depict unlimited potential, glass as it too is both liquid and solid and landscapes, which form the basis of our day, but I offer the concealed magic of the world beyond our vision allows us. The series can be considered an update to Salvador Dali's Still Life Fast Moving
