Summer at the table with flowers and fruit by Vlindertuin-Art

A summer painting with an abundance of flowers and fruit. On a table is a basket filled with red apples and citrus fruits, next to it are bunches of grapes and some loose oranges. In the centre is an earthenware jug full of flowers in different shades of pink, white and purple. To the right of the bouquet is a bottle of dark liquid and a glass that is filled, as if it has just been poured. The set is on a table with a cloth hanging wavy over the edge. The light falls softly over the whole, creating glow on the fruit and glasses.

The summer still life comes into its own in a kitchen or dining room where people live. In a home with wooden furniture, ceramics and plants, it fits in seamlessly. It also adds something in a quiet room where light and colour are welcome. It gives a feeling of summer calm, as if you can sit at the table for a moment.

The painting's style is loose and full of movement. The brushstrokes are visible and give depth to flowers, glass and fruit without sharp lines. The use of colour is soft and vibrant at the same time. The flowers bring pink, white and lilac into focus, the fruit adds red, orange and yellow, the bottle and grapes provide depth with dark tones. The background is light and calm, making everything in the foreground stand out without being overpowering.

A summery and rural floral still life that brings summer into your home!
