Still Life Painting

The Process

Three ways to design a still life.

  •  Sellect related objects to create an interesting design and arrange them as you want them in the painting.
  • Select related objects, set them in a line in front of you,  and arrange them on paper.
  • Decide on a theme for your painting, select objects to symbolize your theme.
