Artwork Description

Lots of workman and work going on that day in the Perth CBD, and they were ducking in and out of the sunlight; some were even working! This guy kept checking his work order or something, maybe a little nervous. I had to paint him, and I played with the connection of his hands to his body, as a way of referencing his constant business. Again, I have sanded and distressed the canvas and painting surface.

All art by Ric Burkitt

These lilies have been painted with a palette knife, mainly, to keep them loose and free but still make them recognisable. A small study of these beautiful flowers in oil, where I have included observations about the cut-glass vase they were arranged in, to add a contemporary feel to an otherwise timeless genre. 'Descendants' is a nod to the past, to the many many still life paintings that came before it.
