About the Item
This evocative still life captures a harmonious interplay of artistic elements, blending rich textures and muted tones with thoughtful symbolism. At the heart of the composition lies a well-used artist’s palette, its surface alive with traces of vibrant paint, hinting at the creative process. A delicate glass vase cradles withering red roses, their fading beauty contrasted by the presence of aged books and a realistically rendered sculpted ear cast — a nod to artistic study and perception.
The brushwork masterfully balances detail and abstraction, inviting the viewer to reflect on the impermanence of creativity and memory. This piece offers a sophisticated blend of nostalgia and artistic expression, making it a striking addition to any collection.
The painting is sold unframed.
Irina Forrester is a contemporary Russian-born British artist. She and her family has moved to Singapore from London seven years ago. She has received a formal education at art school in Russia, but her young family and work commitments meant that she had a long break before picking up her brushes again.
Moving to Singapore allowed Irina free time to renew her interest in art and she has spent the last few years exploring various options to brush up on her skills and move forward. To blow away the initial cobwebs, she attended a series of short courses at LASALLE and NAFA and is now an active member of some of Singapore’s life figure/portrait drawing groups to keep her eyes sharp.
Most of Irina’s work is representational but recently she has been looking to shift it towards a fine balance between abstraction and realism. Her subject matter covers a wide range from still lifes and landscapes to portraiture and life drawing sketches. She prefers oils to other mediums for its versatility in application but also enjoys acrylics, gouache, charcoal and ink.
Irina exhibits regularly (40+ shows and art fairs in the last 3 years) and her works are in private collections in the UK, the USA, Europe, Russia, Hong Kong and Singapore.
Artist’s statement
As a visual storyteller, my paintings are the illustrations of my life’s diary—intimate reflections of the moments that shape me. Painting from life is at the core of my practice, capturing subjects ranging from plein air landscapes in Singapore and abroad to more abstract explorations in recent works.
Each piece is an emotional response to the world around me, where the act of putting feeling onto canvas becomes a journey of discovery. This approach results in a diverse body of work, spanning portraits, life drawing sketches, landscapes, and still lifes.
Through my art, I strive to preserve fleeting moments, transforming them into visual narratives that connect emotion, memory, and experience.
The gallery guarantees the uniqueness and high quality of this work of art, confirmed by a certificate of authenticity. By purchasing paintings by Irina Forrester, you make a smart investment, as the price of her paintings is growing every year.
