This original work «Still life with pumpkins» was created by contemporary Russian artist Angelika Meller and is available for purchase online.
The painting «Натюрморт с тыквами» (Still Life with Pumpkins) by Angelika Meller is a vivid and atmospheric depiction filled with the spirit of autumn and a hint of Halloween mystery. The artist skillfully conveys texture and colors, creating a scene on the canvas that is both captivating and intriguing.
The central focus of the composition is two bright orange pumpkins, expertly carved into faces that are frightening yet friendly at the same time. Their «eyes» and «smiles» are full of playful mischief, and the bright color of the pumpkins contrasts with the more subdued tones of the surrounding space. These pumpkins are not just vegetables; they are symbols of autumn, harvest, and, of course, All Saints’ Day.
To the right of the pumpkins stands a small bottle filled with bright blue liquid. Its presence adds an air of mystery to the still life, hinting at possible witchcraft or the preparation of some magical potion. The contrast between the warm orange hues of the pumpkins and the cool blue color of the bottle creates visual tension and draws the viewer’s attention.
The background of the painting is decorated with draperies in muted gray and purple tones. Their texture and fabric create a sense of depth and volume, adding painterly quality to the still life. These fabrics may resemble antique rugs or heavy curtains, creating an atmosphere of coziness and seclusion typical of autumn evenings.
Angelika Meller masterfully uses pastel technique, creating soft color transitions and tangible texture. Every stroke is deliberate, conveying both the form and mood of the objects. The light falling on the pumpkins and bottle emphasizes their volume and creates a play of highlights, making the still life lively and dynamic.
«Натюрморт с тыквами» is not just a depiction of autumn attributes; it is an invitation to immerse yourself in the festive atmosphere. The painting evokes associations with warm evenings, the scent of spices, and a subtle sense of mysticism that accompanies the approach of Halloween. It is a work of art that fills the space with autumn warmth and ghostly charm.
This painting can be hung on the wall in your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel, and it will become a wonderful decoration for your interior.
