About the Item

This small scale still life study by John D Martin imparts a soft impressionist style to describe everyday objects with sensitivity that highlights the beauty which is often overlooked. The piece is briskly and loosely rendered, confidently creating the impression of an arrangement of delicate subject matter, their beauty conveyed in true, relative colours. The softness of the palette imbues the piece with a serene ambience. With dissolution of form, exquisite detail is applied to the handling of light and shade capturing a calming scene. The subject matter is composed in a satisfying and tranquil way, depicting comforting and delicate objects such as bright flora and a stylish tea cup. This contemporary artwork is imparts oil on board, is hand signed by the artist and ready to be displayed. John Martin was born in 1957. He studied at Hornsey followed by three years at Exeter College of Art where he obtained a First Class Honours Degree. He then studied at the Royal Academy Schools under Peter Greenham, gaining a Post Graduate Diploma. His work is in a line of traditional figurative painting, influenced by the Camden Town Group, particularly Sickert, Gilman and Spencer Gore. John’s paintings reflect a sense of place and atmosphere. Brian Sewell, Art Critic of the Evening Standard, said of John’s work: “The gentle honesty of his observation and a technique that matches it produce pictures without irritating mannerisms or striving effects.” John was elected a member of the Royal Society of British Artists in 1990 and has been the recipient of many awards; Stowells of Chelsea Prize Winner, David Murray Landscape Scholarship, WH Patterson Prize, the Fabrica Painting Prize, the Windsor and Newton Best Artist Award and more recently John was awarded the de Laszlo medal at the RBA.

    By John D. Martin

The artist applies a soft, hazy palette of relevant colours to describe the setting, involving typical garden still life arrangments of which are rendered with loose and briskly paint stokes, eliciting a soothing impression of the picturesque spectacle, conveying a serene and inviting ambience. The intimacy of this landscape demonstrates care and exquisite precision which is employed to capture the essence of light and shade in this piece, implying the warmth and brightness of springtime.
