Something about 'Still life'.

A still life painting by HIMANSHU SHEKHAR,

Medium: poster colour.

Sometime people use to say that making 'still life' painting is kinda boaring. Even previously my thought was also like, ya it's boaring who is going to do this, but no, actually not.
You know what, when I tried to make it, it feels great to me. I got the same good feelings what I usually get by making any scenery, landscape, or portraits kind of things.

Actully, art gives life to things, and still life is one of the perfect example for this. Those things to which we usually deny to see or sometimes ignore it like the jugs or mugs, glasses on the table, usual things in our houses, stones, pabbels, or sometimes the small rocks by the side of rivers are very few of the examples of still life. If you want to see the beauty of those things try to make it in your paintings. May be those things don't attract you naturally but when you'll see the painting of it you'll be able to find the actual beauty of that stuffs.

If you'll try to make any paintings on still life you'll be able to see yourself bringing the beauty of such things live in your painting which will make you confident to find some more hidden beauty's from the life of non living things.
