I have used a decorated teapot many times in still life studies. The decal on the side of the teapot has been modified many times to suit the accompanying flowers.
Tithonias are a different plant from common sunflowers, but their bright yellow blossoms look good against a blue background.
Love, persistence skill and care go into the making of Log Cabin quilts, and these still life paintings are an attempt to catch a little of the spirit that is sewn in to these fabrics.
In these paintings I celebrate the great needlework skills of the women of earlier generations who have left us many beautiful embroidered cloths. Sadly many of these exquisite works remain unwanted on the shelf.

The great variety of bottlebrush flowers makes for a great still-life subject. In this post I have shown some of my paintings of these great Australian flowers.
A collection of still life paintings featuring kitchen utensils and chicken-shaped objects in ceramic and carved wood.
