Oriental Jar & Roses

Oriental Jar & Roses
12 x 16
Oil Painting
by Pat Fiorello

I bought this beautiful jar at a local florist specifically because I thought it had an interesting shape and would be a nice focal point for a still life, but hadn't got around to painting it yet. Enjoyed painting this relatively simple set up from life. I simplified the calligraphy quite a bit to just suggest it, but hope I still retained the feel of the jar.


I have a photo of the actual jar and set up below.
