Majority of the still life's one would find when looking online is fruit, wine, and occasionally instruments or the like. I chose this still life because it stands out from the rest with the abundance of "living" creatures in the composition. Not only does it stand out because of content, its a little corky having the kittens suspicious of the fish. The colors compliment each other with the dark shadowed background and lively red and blue fish.

  1. This one is fantastic! It has this sense of dark comedy to it, and a gross sense of excess. The fact that there is a lit room with another still life in the background is unusual and interesting. Thanks!
