Reflections in Yellow
Oil on canvas – 60 x 90 cm
Reflections in Yellow draws the viewer into a quiet, luminous conversation between metal and citrus. Silver teapots and jugs sit across a glossy surface, their polished forms holding fragments of light and the sharp, bright reflections of sliced lemons. The stillness of the objects contrasts with the energy of the colour, creating a tension that feels both elegant and alive.
This painting explores how simple elements, fruit, metal, shadow can become theatrical when arranged with intention. Each lemon has been placed to reflect across the vessels like sparks of memory, illuminating surfaces that would otherwise remain unreadable. The palette remains restrained, allowing the lemon’s warmth to carry the emotional tone of the work.
A piece for those who love subtle drama, technical detail, and the play between realism and contemplation.
