summer in a blue jug by Sara Rigby

Hi, You need a better photograph of this. what you have here - and have 'chosen' - as much as it has choosen you - is absolutely timeless. The timelessness of a still life? no, there is often a too composed element within them ie they are the 'subject' - this is clear and unadorned just simple budding flora in a plain jug. A plain jug has clarity and beauty of purpose - and the buds have their own universal poetry. A timelessness of Landscape? no, that has specificity; this subject crosses all culture, and place. It allows all poetry. In the past I've favoured Oranges in a dish to do that - but it is, in the end a needful subject because of course Oranges arn't available everywhere. If these spring/ summer flowers were in a vase - it wouldn't have it's quiet understated power. People think they can - but not everyone can do something lile this. Stay with the clear and the unadorned. All the best - Cheers. Dai Harding.
