Avocado (2024) Original Oil Painting by Rixt Wagter-Siebinga

35 x 23 x 3.5cm (framed)

£320.81

A still life of quiet simplicity—shapes, shadows, and the warmth of natural tones come together in a carefully balanced composition. The dark plate cradles the rich green of the avocado, its golden center drawing the eye. A small, rounded object rests nearby, its form echoing the avocado’s own, creating a subtle dialogue between elements. The light, cool background sets a contrast, making each object stand out in its quiet presence.

The interplay of sharp edges and deep hues gives this piece a sense of stillness, inviting contemplation. The objects are familiar, yet the way they are arranged transforms them into something more—an exploration of form, color, and shadow.

As always, I use oil paint for its depth and richness. The smooth blending of tones and the subtle texture of the brushstrokes bring a sense of warmth and quiet balance to the composition. The layered colors and soft shadows create a tactile quality, making the objects feel both familiar and timeless—an invitation to pause and appreciate the beauty in the everyday.
