Pomegranate, Oil Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
A minimalist realistic still life of an open pomegranate by artist Christopher Garvey. The tart fruit is cut in three portions with its seeds scattered around a wooden chopping board and unto a white surface. Soft light shines above the setting, providing the perfect opportunity for defined shadows. A fitting grey background completes the composition bringing all focus to the subject.


About the Artist
Christopher Garvey focuses on the still life in his work, capturing objects like dishes and fruit with impressive clarity. He currently lives in South Carolina and finds inspiration in Renaissance and Baroque art. When it comes to technique, he enjoys the challenge of accurate drawing and the transparent qualities of oil paint. He has collected many books over the years, which he uses to improve his practice.
