Peonies in Silver Jug

Linda Alexander ROI | Oil | 9 x 10.5 inches

Linda’s early career as an artist where she was known for her large-scale paintings of flowers and botanical subjects. She was fascinated by the effects of strong sunlight on these intricate subjects and loved to paint their complex structures and delicate surface textures. In recent years her work has progressed into the world of still life painting. Here she still enjoys some of the same observations, but her work is quieter and has become more contemplative in nature.

New fascinations have developed. A love of the balance achieved between objects and the spaces between, the interplay of shadows, the joy of reflective surfaces and the enjoyment of soft and hard edges. Her still life paintings are small and simple. But, the careful observation of one or two small, beautifully portrayed objects, allow the viewer a moment of quiet contemplation. Stillness in such a fast-moving world.
