Artist Comments
Three juicy cherries line up on a table, with the light enhancing their luminous and vibrant color. The sharp and detailed rendition of the fruit imparts a realistic quality to the composition. Painted with Flemish techniques, the process involves building the image through multiple layers of paint, adding richness and detail to the artwork.

About the Artist
Artist Art Tatin creates realistic still-life compositions inspired by classical techniques and masters. After years of exploring surrealist and abstract styles earlier in his career, he discovered true artistic satisfaction and inspiration by returning to traditional painting methods. In pursuit of grace, he draws his reference material from his neighbor's flower bed, a bird's song, or a produce aisle. "In our hectic and stressful modern lives, when we often overlook beauty, I make it my goal to capture it," says Art. He emphasizes the importance of composition in his creative process, considering the relationships between objects, colors, and angles. While Art doesn't have a traditional studio, he separates workspaces to control dust and lint, which is crucial to keeping foreign particles away from his works. Beyond painting, he enjoys reading, watching movies, sitcoms, and tending to his home and backyard.
