Over the past month I have been experimenting to try and create Dutch Master inspired still life images. Low contract and beautiful window light appears to be the answer. After collecting multiple objects mainly from charity shops I ended up with an interesting assortment of items I could utilise into create beautiful velvety type images. Light and processing is key in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop to be able to create a style that reminisces about a past skill from many talented artists. The next project will be to try and go in a totally different direction with David Lachapelle being the main inpiration in creating a modern still life image. Wish me luck!
