Challenge 57 - Private Moment


My dear PADT artists.

Lately, I have been traveling a lot. And being away for many weeks did impact my ability to post a new challenge timely. On a positive side, travels gave me an opportunity to see new places, get some new ideas and meet some incredible people.

With a New Year just around a corner, I would like to sincerely thank you and express how much joy PADT and all of you have generously given to the artist world around us, and wish for your good health, many amazing paintings, joy and happiness in return.

Wishing you a Happy New Year with the hope that you will have many blessings in the year to come.

About the composition

This photo was taken in the lobby of Hilton hotel in Indianapolis, US. I fell in love with this very subtle play of light all around, uncountable number of amazing light effects and mystery. If I could, I would have added a few more interesting still life objects, to complement the surrounding. However, being a hotel lobby, that wasn't an option.

And that is what I will leave to all of you to play with, and enhance the composition as you would like to. A hand written letter with a rose will inspire a love letter, or a book and reading glasses would look great - let your imagination guide you in choosing what appeals to you the most.

Please send your paintings by January 10, 2016. The next challenge will be posted on January 11, 2016.

Challenge 56 - Still Life with Lemons



It was a great joy seeing all PADT paintings and drawings from the last challenge.
Thank you very much for participating and sharing this special time with us.


About the composition

This still life was placed in a light box with a small window at the top left and photographed.
Such setup created a very dark background and impression that objects are emerging from the darkness behind them, very often seen in Old Master's paintings.

I hope you would love this setup as much as I do and reward all of us at PADT with your beautiful paintings and drawings.

Please send your paintings by October 25, 2015. The next challenge will be posted on October 26, 2015.
