A Table's Tale

Oil Painting

“A Table’s Tale” was a recreation of the objects I set up on my table. This painting required me to understand my light source, the shadows, and the texture of each object. The objective was to replicate both the appearance and the texture. To paint the cloth, I blended beige, grays, and greens to recreate the smooth, tactile quality of the cloth. Similarly, to paint the grapes, I created multiple layers of crimson red and purple. This helped me achieve a translucent and ripe look. For the jug, I varied the light and dark contrasts to depict the reflections of the surroundings.

Art allows me to embrace new experiences. It provides me with an outlet to calm myself and cultivate a more optimistic mindset. I strive to recreate simple moments of life that often go unnoticed and provide others with a sense of connection to the ordinary beauty that surrounds us.
