Portrait

Still Life - Nature Mort

I like to vary the work I produce and love studying still life subjects as everything you paint, is a landscape a study of light and dark of hills and vales.
J'aime varier le travail que je produis et j'adore étudier les natures mortes, car tout ce que vous peignez est un paysage, une étude de la lumière et de l'obscurité, des collines et des vallées.
