Roses are not the easiest to paint without any aid like photography or other mechanical means, due to the fact that they change every minute (as does the natural light in the studio). Every rose has to be chosen and painted individually and placed into the composition, the shadows they cast on other roses or petals need to be calculated. It is easy to see, in artists works, which paintings of flowers are just copied from photo's and which are created organically. True art are the ones that are done just what the eye sees. If done properly, the result will be an obvious work of art, with some minor acceptable flaws, and not a painted photo.

All art by Jos Kivits

The feeling of holding something in your hands that is hundred of years old, like the pewter and the ceramic Japanese vase, gives me a feeling of agelessness. It vibrates through my entire body and to spend weeks painting something like this climaxes to an explosion in my imagination. A painting of this calibre is and always will be an eye catcher when people realise it has not been created with shortcuts and tricks, but genuinely by discipline and artistry without smoke and mirrors. It is a work I cannot get away from as it is in my soul to paint what every eye can see without the help of any kind of trickery or Painted in 2005 and several times perfected and varnished over the years. This very work has never been exhibited, although one similar depicting different objects was revealed in Jos’ 2018 exhibition.

The style and technique is considered β€˜Classical European’ and first exposed to Australia by some well-known earlier artists like Hans Heysen, Arthur Streeton, & Besie Davidson.
