Still life Bottle , Palette Knife Art, "Vintage Bottle" by Carol Schiff, 6x8" Oil Still Life, SOLD

I have become slightly obsessed with vintage bottles, well, maybe a little more than slightly.  I love the idea of these bottles, most of them reclaimed from the earth, crusty and sometimes pearlized.  I like to think about how they were used when they were new.....and if they have a crystal cross on top (called a cross bottle) all the better!

Purchase here
100 + shipping

This one, obviously does not have a cross on the top.  It does have any absolutely gorgeous color, kind of a cobalt violet.  I am told the it started out as clear glass, but due to magnesium in the glass, has aged into a beautiful hue.

The other thing I love, is painting with wild abandon with loads of thick, creamy, oil paint and a combination of palette knife and brush.  So yes, this little painting hits my buttons on several levels.

Some days, I just go through the motions, and the resulting painting usually shows it,  but this one was pure joy!  I would love for you to pin it!

I still have a bowl full of garlic in my studio from painting this painting. I noticed yesterday that I was feeling hungry all day - I think the garlic aroma was making my mouth water! Time to clean the studio...

Have a Happy Easter weekend!

Pear Still Life Art by Jill Saur

Fresh off the easel, this is my new 8"x10"x1.5" palette knife pear painting. It's loaded with texture and drenched in soft, light hues. I've named it, "Gentle Touch".  It was inspired by something totally unrelated, Vincent Van Gogh's, "Sunflowers".
