Bowl with Spice

This original painting by Heidi von Faber presents a hyper realistic rendering of a contemporary still life which evokes the style and precision of early dutch masters of the genre. Careful attention has been applied to conveying light and dark effects, setting the arrangement against a dim, dark backdrop, imbuing the illuminated items with a dynamism and gravity. The lighting and simplicity of the composition draws attention to the beauty of the everyday objects in the painting, conveying their texture with a tangible authenticity and portraying them with a high level of definition. The artwork presents subject matter painted in such accuracy and palpability by the artist that you can almost smell the aromas of the spices emanating from it, making for a delightful image. This modern artwork is painted in oils on canvas, hand signed by the artist and ready to be displayed.
