Artists create beauty from everyday objects
Calla by Fred Hummel
Quest Art is welcoming the New Year with an exhibition of works inspired by everyday objects. This exhibition, featuring paintings, drawings and sculpture runs until March 3rd.
A still life is a work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter. With origins in the Middle Ages and Ancient Greek/Roman art, still life paintings give the artist more leeway in the arrangement of design elements within a composition than do paintings of other types of subjects such as landscape or portraiture. Some modern still life breaks the two-dimensional barrier and employs three-dimensional mixed media, and uses found objects, photography, computer graphics, as well as video and sound |
