He has been obsessed with painting still life for 20 years, and at the age of 25, he has been exhibiting constantly. He is "stuffy" and amazing! Watching it a hundred times is not enough

 

Still life painting Composition of

It is essential in the training process of art students

A seemingly simple geometric combination without any vitality

Can make people learn to draw

Keep thinking repeatedly to improve yourself



Painting a still life is simple

Especially fruit still life combinations

It really is Let art students draw until they vomit

If you are not afraid of drawing wrong, you are afraid of not drawing much

When can I be considered a good painting

Born 1982 Doylestown, PA

43-year-old Justin is particularly fascinated by traditional painting

It can be said that I liked drawing since I was a child doodling

Formal exposure to painting courses in high school

 


It is better to become famous early, and it is better to be a teacher

As a seemingly ordinary art student

But he played still life painting to the extreme

He learned from the famous illustrator Murray Tinkleman And John Thompson Under the door

He and the artist Jerome Witkin Learn character sketching together

In Justin's studies

His most What I like is classical painting history and sketch creation



After graduation Justin found one Water Street Working Studio

Day after day in training and teaching

Justin became an important lecturer in the studio's sketch painting

Specializing in still life, he also has a lot of experience in studying the human body

But he ultimately Passionate about the expression of still life painting


 

Everything is alive in a painter's pen

In particular Still life combination of Justin's paintings

High degree of color reduction

Accurately render fruit, utensils or any related texture

Of course, painting is not a reproduction

When everyone thinks that all details are only shaping

Justin makes better use of color warm and cold to shape spatial relations


 

Soft and layered light and shadow effects

let Justin's observation is excellent in still life shaping

Transmitted light is not just the distinction between black and white and gray

Make good use of light and shadow changes

Better reinforcement of objects

Volume and texture

The artist's capture of "light" is really comparable to the finishing touch



Justin The light, objects and natural world created

Creates a calm sense of stability

Although it's just a still life work

But Where Justin went Also shaped A meditative and quiet atmosphere

The cohesion of each piece comes from light

It's delightful to shine around objects



Compositionally simple but stable

Orderly arrangement of all kinds of still life

Let the picture Balanced and rhythmic

Exquisite but not ultra-realistic

Classical aesthetics is also wonderful in such a group of still life paintings



Participating in exhibitions since the age of 25

Whether it's an oil painting or a still life

All have been invited by major competition exhibitions (including those of Central Academy of Fine Arts) and media

Still life painting that I first learned

In Justin's pen became a classic and traditional work of art



Sketch still life, color still life

Perhaps many people are gradually tired of learning to draw Repeat exercises

But the understanding of painting itself will not be fixed at one point

No matter what material can show the charm of painting

 


Appreciate and learn more works
