Still life….(noun) a painting or drawing of an arrangement of objects, typically includingfruit and flowers and objects contrasting with these in texture, such as bowls and glassware.
Sure…. i love them now…..but as a young art student nothing struck more fear in me as the teacher uttering the words “still life” as the days assignment! Mostly because i had one teacher who took entirely to much pleasure in putting together the craziest of discarded objects for us to draw….now that i look back at my old sketch books, those still life drawings look like the rough sketches of some art installation in a SOHO gallery….hmmm
