Olga Antonova
"Two Silver Cups, Portrait Reflections Polka Dots, Lavender, Yellow, Blue, Pink"

2021

About the Item

Olga Antonova’s subject is compositions of extraordinarily elegant, beautiful and whimsical cups, plates, teapots, and dishes, but there is something playful about these paintings. Stacked teacups are also amusing, having a kind of jaunty and upbeat personality of their own. Polka dots are as endearing to adults as to children, and everyone responds to the bling and sparkle of gold and silver while marveling at Antonova’s seemingly effortless ability to paint these radiant details. This particular work includes a double self-portrait of the artist at her easel seen as reflections in the two metal cups. Antonova's compositions are a wonderful twist on the classic traditions and formality usually associated with still life painting. This work is unframed. Antonova's paintings can be installed individually, they also work well in groupings as part of a series. Commissions incorporating one’s own personal collection of family heirlooms is also an option.
