Today I will be talking about one of my portfolio oil paintings. It is called Classical Art. Classical Art is one of the few still life paintings in my collection. Growing up in a musical family, instruments and music were always a part of my life. That is where this painting originates from. My Mother was a violinist so the violin in this painting is hers. <\/p>\n
I have found that by painting musical instruments it brings a certain emotion and life. The darker color of this particular violin brings warmth to the whole painting. It was a very technical piece as the violin must be just right to appear real. Painting this was definitely a challenge but it was worth the effort.<\/p>\n
I love how it turned out! Please enjoy this still life painting. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
