I really like still life. The idea of capturing a moment in time, using very familiar objects, feels like we are somehow in control of time. Of course, we are not at all, but the illusion of holding time is very appealing.I love the perspective in this image. Looking at the objects from above is a different but lovely approach. The colours are appealing, and the contrasts between the yellow lemons, deep pink flowers and the blue and white of the crockery are eye-catching and dramatic. It’s a lovely work.
