Cherries, Raspberries... (2021) Original Acrylic Painting by SBBoursot

"Cherries, Raspberries, Blackcurrant, Pepper...?"

The painting depicts a close-up portrait of an older man with short, slightly unkempt white hair, deeply engrossed in the act of smelling a glass of red wine. His expression is one of quiet contemplation, his eyes half-closed in concentration. The brushstrokes and palette knife application are visible and textured, giving the painting a sense of immediacy and energy. The background is a simple, solid turquoise, which contrasts with the more detailed and varied tones of the man's face and clothing. The wine in the glass is a deep, rich crimson, suggesting a full-bodied vintage. The overall effect is one of intimacy and quiet reflection, drawing the viewer into the subject's moment of sensory experience.

Painted with acrylic paints on 3D canvas, using a variety of techniques to create texture on the face and hands, which stand out in contrast to the smoother painted background and clothes.

Finished with satin varnish. Sides painted to allow hanging without a frame. Pitons and cord at the back ready to hang.
