About The Artwork

This still life is part of a series I have been working on recently. They are all painted from life and staged in a shadowbox I have set up in my studio space. These smaller paintings allow me to experiment with different light and other effects, such as the transparency of glass for example. Here I "re-cycled" a souvenir from Florence - an empty bottle of the lovely home scent "Boboli" from Dr. Vranjes. I felt the elegance of the almost white roses and the muted background went rather well with the beautiful, yet simple, bottle. I have found a beautiful Italian frame for this artwork, so I updated this listing. The frame is a brownish black with an ornate gilded insert. The frame is 34,5cm wide, 44,5cm high and 4cm deep. It has been carefully patinated by the frame maker to make it look a bit "pre-loved", so tiny scratches and little irregularities are meant to be. The painting itself measures 35cm x 25cm. Oil on MDF prepared with several layers of half-chalked ground (true Gesso + Linseed Oil Varnish)

People are the main subject in my work - a face is simply a fascinating landscape. Even though I am attracted to beauty, somehow there is always a tiny touch of bitterness that slips into my paintings, tempering the sweetness. My heros may be glamorous, they are still mildly concerned. Will their beauty keep its promise? Will love be around the corner? "Joie de vivre" versus "German Angst"... At times when the latter tries to dominate, I turn towards motives found in nature and still life. The techniques I prefer are oils, pastels and watercolor. More recently, I have started to do linocuts and etchings, as well. My works are found in private collections in Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Switzerland, England, Scotland, Brazil, Australia and the USA. www.corinnekorda.com
