(Click image to see the still life gallery) Creating still life paintings can be a way to celebrate the joy in simple objects, find the personality in ordinary things, and explore the worlds within worlds that are visible when you look deeply at a flower or other parts of nature. A still life painting of one’s favorite things can be a fun way to paint (and gift) a portrait of a life. For more information visit How to Buy.
