About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. This original still-life painting captures the warm vibrancy of sunflowers in a vase, brought to life in exquisite detail through oil on canvas board. The artwork features five bold sunflowers, their bright yellow petals radiating against a rich, contrasting background. They sit proudly in a gleaming blue-and-white ceramic vase, which glistens with a sense of realism as it catches the light. The vase is casually placed atop a stack of artist books, each carefully chosen to reflect a reverence for art history: volumes on Van Gogh, Monet, Japanese prints, and the classic "History of Art" by Gombrich. The arrangement of these elements adds an intimate touch, blending still life with subtle storytelling. In terms of color, a harmonious palette of yellows, blues, and greens dominates the composition, creating a balanced yet lively energy that makes the piece visually captivating. The sunflowers, painted with meticulous attention to texture, seem almost tangible, while the surrounding objects ground the scene in an atmosphere of creative reflection. This signed artwork is framed and ready for display, available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea or online, adding an elegant, vibrant presence to any collection. Artist Bio: Marie Robinson is an established fine artist whose practice centers on oil painting, supported by close observational drawing. Her work embraces contemporary realism, rooted in the tradition of representational painting, and she is particularly known for her still-life compositions, often with a unique twist. Marie draws inspiration from the history and associations of everyday objects and materials, particularly those found in domestic settings. Working directly from life, she employs a detailed representational style that evokes the essence of her subjects while maintaining the physicality of oil paint on a flat surface. Although Marie has drawn and painted throughout her life, she initially pursued a different path. Art did not align with the more ‘academic’ and scientific subjects at school, leading her to study Chemistry (BSc). After starting a family, she returned to her artistic passion, earning a BA in Fine Art with First Class Honours in 2002. Since then, Marie has continued to develop her painting, with her work being selected for numerous prestigious exhibitions. These include the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition (2023 & 2024), the Royal Society of Marine Artists (2023), and the ING Discerning Eye Exhibition, where she participated in seven separate years, winning the ING Discerning Eye Staff Purchase Prize in 2014. Other notable exhibitions include the Society of Women Artists Open Exhibition, the Lynn Painter-Stainers Prize Exhibition, and the Sunday Times Watercolour Competition. She has also been invited to join the long-established Oxford Art Society. Marie currently works from a rural studio in the Chilterns, where the natural surroundings inspire her. Seasonal flowers feature prominently in her still-life works, and she enjoys capturing the ever-changing moods and weather of the British countryside. Explore the captivating still life paintings by Marie Robinson, carefully selected and curated at Signet Contemporary Art, available for sale in our London gallery and online. Immerse yourself in the beauty of these remarkable pieces, each a testament to Marie’s extraordinary talent and distinctive artistic vision.
