Still Life with a Blue Vase 2003

Dmytro Kavsan made this still life painting with a colourful range of tones and gestural marks. I wonder how the artist began, maybe shifting the objects around, or working from direct observation to capture the nuances of light and shadow? Looking at the textures, I imagine Kavsan relishing in the physicality of the medium, using expressive brushstrokes, each dab and stroke of paint applied with intention. The blue vases and bottles, contrasted against the soft palette of yellow and peach, create a lovely harmony. The musical score on the table adds another layer, connecting visual and auditory senses. You know, painting is like entering a conversation where artists across time respond to one another, inspiring creativity. It's never fixed, always open to new ideas and feelings.
