Still Life Paintings
by Cara London



When I work on a still life painting, I like to focus on the structure and relationships of the shapes and space.  I work around the forms until I feel that the objects are "sitting" properly.  I love exploring the depths of the colors.  I tend to have an ant's eye view of things, although I'm not sure why that is.  I usually work in my kitchen, because the light is best.  I work relatively quickly.  I can't keep things set up for too long, because it is my kitchen, after all.  But everyone in my family is used to me, so we make adjustments.
