Sigh. It’s still life oil paintings like these that make me want to sign up for “Still Life Painting 101”. This is the work of UK based painter Susan Ashworth. Such a beautiful celebration of the mundane, and don’t even get me started on her stunning use of light… those dark rooms? Shafts of sunlight cascading in on those simple jars of flowers? LOVE!

    Just gorgeous! The shadows evoke a sense of loneliness in me. Really simple and beautiful.

    I have the top ‘CherryBlossom’ painting in my bedroom – bought in St Ives. Lucky me!
