John Hrehov
Dessert - Still Life Table Setting with Fruit, Wine and Flowers, Oil on Panel

2022

About the Item

The artist is a master at storytelling. He sets the stage for the viewer to bring the events to a particular scene. Here, the artist has set two wine glasses, napkins and a small plate of desserts on a geometrically patterned table cloth, draping so it almost appears to be falling over the frame. The viewer is required to ask the questions about the scene but the answers may only lie in their own imagination. The painting, which is painted on canvas then mounted to a panel, is framed in a simple wooden frame measuring 21 x 30 inches.

Holiday End - Surreal Christmas Scene, Original Oil on Canvas, Framed
By John Hrehov
Located in Chicago, IL
John Hrehov is a master at storytelling. Here, the artist presents us with a curious scene. In a sparsely decorated room albeit family portraits, a son is witnessing his father doing something very peculiar. Hrehov calls on the viewer to examine the scene more closely - asking ourselves what traits are being passed on to this innocent witness? The piece is framed in a simple white floater frame measuring 26 x 38 inches.
