Master of Art

It's just one thing, polished over and over again.

In addition to daily physiological needs,

One thing that you have persisted for the longest time.

What is this?

A painter from Australia

Chris canning can tell you.

Her answer

▼

Color still life

Chris was born in Melbourne,

She is 73 years old.

I have been painting color still life for more than 50 years.

Until now,

There is no sign of slowing down.

"I have five or six days a week, eight hours a day by the easel."

She is a real pervert,

Still life is bright and conspicuous.

Personal style is very obvious.

All kinds of bottles and jars are under her brush.

Full of energy.

The pottery is lifelike, the glass bottle is transparent and the glaze color is rich ~

The contrast is strong and unforgettable.

Chris is not only good at pottery,

There are also various combinations of flowers and porcelain.

In order to draw colorful still lives,

I also collected a lot of porcelain for this purpose.

According to different flower combinations

To match different still life scenes.

Sometimes, it takes days to fiddle with it.

Just to present the best painting effect.

I will also refer to the styles of other masters for secondary creation.

For example, below,

It's for

Pay tribute to mondriaan's composition of red, yellow and blue;

It is Chris' tireless research spirit on color still life.

So she was called.

One of Australian still life artists.

Chris when he was young

You may find it strange,

Why does she have such a deep obsession with color still life?

You can paint the same flower still life for 50 years.

Actually, it's because

Her creative inspiration for flowers is endless ~

/I like floral art and have my own small garden/

Speaking of Chris' creative inspiration,

In fact, it came from her and her husband, David Glenn.

A garden carefully planted and cultivated together.

Criss and her husband are so in love,

From time to time, I sprinkle some dog food on INS.

This feeling envies others ~

On the other hand,

Mr Glenn is for Chris.

The carefully built garden has 40 acres! !

The garden is full of beautiful flowers and plants.

They grow luxuriantly and enthusiastically,

This is the paradise that many gardeners dream of.

Chris's favorite thing to do at ordinary times

Is to walk in the garden,

Feel the four seasons in the garden.

"Every morning,

Every time I walk into the yard,

Nature is welcoming me,

Let me feel the beauty of life. "

Tulips in her latest painting.

That was in 20 19,

Painted with tulips grown in her garden;

Tulip painting and prototype

Chris who loves life.

Will decorate this home with the most delicate flowers of the season,

Make the whole family full of energy ~

Of course she will.

Enjoy your home quietly.

Replace the lens with a picture.

An ancient painting in the living room: interior and kimono

/I like the ocean and collect a lot of shells for painting/

Besides,

Besides painting flowers, Chris,

And I like ocean elements very much.

Although it is inconvenient to go to the seaside where she is,

But in order to get closer to the sea,

She also collected all kinds of

"marine elements"

Used for painting.

Porcelain and marine elements,

Can also complement each other.

of course，

Criss's favorite flowers are indispensable!

The combination of flowers and shells is unexpectedly harmonious.

The whole painting is dark but not dim.

It can also set off the texture of the object well.

Australian National Treasure Art Museum

Gordon Morrison, curator of Ballarat Art Museum.

Spoke highly of Chris's paintings:

"She described the personality of every object."

Painting is often the best reflection of a person.

Emotion and personality,

Can draw a harmonious picture with such high color saturation.

I must have put my feelings into it,

Should be a very interesting person.

Now, Chris,

I still love life and painting so much.

She proved to us:

Age is actually just a number,

We can't escape the passage of time,

But we can choose the way we like.

A happy life.
