Ginny Williams
A Still Life in Delft

2024

About the Item

This is an original oil painting on by Ginny Williams. Celebrating the elements of still life often found in paintings of the Dutch golden age, this piece showcases blue and white porcelain, a Turkish rug, and lemons. Williams has a degree in art history which gave her an understanding of, and appreciation for, not only the art of the past, but the historical events and ideologies that fostered various aesthetics, movements, and styles. She has studied at several classical ateliers, including three years at Boston's Academy of Realist Art. Her work has been shown in galleries throughout the US and is included in public and private collections. She maintains a studio on the north shore of Massachusetts. "My work is about the little moments of beauty that comprise our existence: the greening of the landscape in early spring, the glint of light on an object; growing things and made objects. I enjoy creating interesting interactions, and making up narratives. I love the way light animates objects and the life shadows give to a space. Humans are innately creative beings. We create in myriad ways--painting is one of them. I have made pictures for as long as I remember. While I appreciate many kinds of art, for me, the ultimate goal is to make a beautiful painting that show parts of the process--evidence of an individual behind the easel. I love calligraphic brush marks and leaving parts of a picture to the viewer's imagination. I love pairing the realistic with the made-up. In this, we participate in creating art together."
