Recent Paintings:
Something more than Still Life
Larry Brooks - December --- (click to enlarge)
“In these recent still lifes, I'm trying to not just paint things exactly as they appear, but to let them breathe, to have as much presence as possible. I consider them realist paintings, and as much as I want them to appear “real”, it's important that the evidence of the artists “hand” (mine), is apparent. The selection and arrangement of objects, and especially the way theyre lit, has to suggest to me a certain poetic quality, before I can start to paint them. I like the relationships to be harmonious but somewhat ambiguous, so that they might evoke more than one interpretation, and not necessarily a literal one.”
