Step into the captivating world of "The Portuguese Vase with Freishas" by John D Martin, an original still life painting that invites viewers into a scene brimming with charm and elegance. Crafted with oil on canvas, Martin's impressionistic style infuses the composition with a sense of vibrancy and depth.
At the forefront of the painting, a table takes center stage, adorned with a striking blue vase filled with delicate white freesias. To the left, a small Portuguese blue vase with a lid adds a touch of cultural flair, while on the right, a whimsical fish sculpture lends a playful element to the tableau.
Behind the table, a mirror reflects the beauty of the flowers and offers a glimpse into the dining room beyond. A dining table sits beside the window, bathed in natural light that filters through a yellow and white striped curtain, casting a warm glow over the scene.
The color scheme is a symphony of blue, white, and yellow, with each hue complementing the other to create a sense of harmony and balance. Against this backdrop, the flowers bloom with a serene beauty, their petals seeming to sway gently in an unseen breeze.
Martin's signature graces the corner of the artwork, a testament to his artistic skill and attention to detail. Framed with care, "The Portuguese Vase with Freishas" is not just a painting but a window into a world of timeless elegance, ready to grace the walls of any art lover's home.
For those captivated by its allure, this enchanting artwork awaits at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea, both in-gallery and online, offering an opportunity to add a touch of sophistication to any space.

By Gay Summer Rick
Located in Santa Monica, CA
Depicts the terminal view from LAX.
Sparsely populated though replete with objects and evidence of the built environment, Gay Summer Rick creates iconic urban and coastal land and cityscape paintings that evoke emotion and a sense of place. She creates scenes that are at once dreamlike and familiar. You may have been there; you are there. Revealing an unexpected beauty in commonplace elements within the urban landscape, Gay Summer’s style is a melding of impressionism and color-field painting describing the quiet vibration of life where cities meet the sea.
Applying oil paint to canvas using only palette knives, Gay Summer Rick creates images through a series of interacting, melded layers. The paint is treated architectonically; it is engineered, built into layers, carved, scraped, accumulated, and almost sculpted, but never removed, never discarded. In part to avoid material waste and the use of toxic solvents for reasons of environmentalism, she finds this almost mnemonic accrual of paint a reflection of her experiences in the places she depicts.
Growing up in New York surrounded by artists, Gay Summer Rick began her arts education early in life. She went on to formally study art and received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in New York at the School of Art and Design, Alfred University, where she drew, painted and sculpted images on clay forms and vessels. After receiving a Masters degree in Business Administration, she continued her art training in Los Angeles in painting, which became the primary focus of her art practice. A resident of Southern California for over 25 years, the artist maintains her studio in Malibu.
Gay Summer Rick regularly exhibits in California and Hawaii, and has shown in New York, Europe, and Japan. Her paintings have been featured in solo gallery exhibitions and museum group exhibitions including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art Rental & Sales Gallery; and in international and national group exhibitions where she has received numerous awards and honors. She is a member of Oil Painters of America, California Art Club, Malibu Art...
