Original artwork description
I didn’t set out to paint a classic still life. What interested me was the tension between the elements.
The branch reaches upward while the fruit pulls it down. The vessels just stand there—one steady, the other more reserved, almost stepping back. Nothing is actually moving, but it doesn’t feel static either.
While working on it, I kept adjusting small things—edges, weight, spacing—until the balance felt right. Not perfect, just believable.
The piece comes from a place I know well: trying to hold things together while they’re quietly shifting. A kind of control that never feels complete. A calm that needs constant attention.
In the end, these objects became something else. They stand for restraint, for pressure, for those small, ongoing decisions that keep things from tipping over.
It looks simple. But it isn’t.
