This original artwork “Still Life in Light Tones” was created by the contemporary Russian artist Ekaterina Kebal  and is available for sale online

Ekaterina Kebal’s painting “Still Life in Light Tones” is a calm and peaceful depiction of simple objects, united by a common light palette and creating a sense of harmony and coziness. The artist chooses muted, pastel tones and a soft painting style to convey the subtle charm of the everyday.

A potted houseplant takes center stage in the composition. The plant has a dense crown and lush green leaves, which adds a touch of life and freshness to the still life. The pot is made in light, beige tones, which harmonizes with the overall color scheme of the painting. It seems simple and unassuming, which allows you to focus on the beauty of the plant itself.

To the right of the plant is a decorative candlestick in the shape of a butterfly. Its wings are painted in delicate shades of yellow and orange, creating a soft and warm glow. The candlestick is a bright accent in the still life, but it does not violate its overall harmony. Its unusual shape and color bring an element of play and fantasy to the composition.

In front of the plant and the candlestick is a small teapot, made in light, almost white tones. Its shape is simple and graceful. On the surface of the teapot, there are slight highlights of light, which creates a feeling of smoothness and gloss. The teapot adds a touch of home comfort and warmth to the still life.

All the objects are located on a light surface, possibly a table or chest of drawers. This surface is painted with broad, free strokes, which creates a sense of texture and volume. Light shadows are visible on it, which emphasize the shape of the objects and give the composition depth.

The background of the painting is executed in blurred light tones. One can distinguish certain patterns or drawings on it, but they do not have clear outlines. The background creates a feeling of airiness and lightness, and also allows the objects in the foreground to look more expressive.

The artist uses muted colors and a soft painting style, which creates a feeling of tranquility and peace. There are no bright contrasts or sharp lines in the painting, which gives it tenderness and lyricism. It seems to invite the viewer to pause for a moment and enjoy the beauty of the simple things that surround us in everyday life.

Overall, the plot of the painting conveys a feeling of home comfort, warmth, and harmony. It is an ode to the simple joys of life, which can be found in the most ordinary things. The painting seems to say that beauty does not necessarily have to be bright and flashy; it can be quiet and modest, but no less beautiful for that. This canvas is about the ability to see the beautiful in the everyday, about the value of simple things, and about the harmony that can be found in the most ordinary corners of our lives.
