While primarily focused on conveying nature through landscape and architectural paintings, David Stone’s most recent work captures a moment in a domestic space with a considered approach to still life. Using the classic motif of flowers as a focal point, he adds a vibrancy of colour and artistic sensitivity to the most mundane of spaces.
Combining a crafted scene with the natural flow of his brushwork, this oil painting began from a drawing before it was built up in meticulously thought-out layers. Compositionally, it invites the eye to travel from one common domestic object to another, using the abundance of elements to create a sense of intrigue and character.
