Johannes de Bruyn made his debut as a flower and fruit still life painter in the 19th
century in Utrecht. He was a student of the painter G.J. van Hulstyn. In our pair of flower still lifes, Cornelis Johannes de Bruyn has depicted two bouquets of colorful flowers set in a stone niche. They are delicate, highly detailed, realistic pieces painted in the vein of seventeenth century Old Master works. Each bouquet is arranged in a low glass bowl on a small marble pedestal that placed in the niche. The background shifts from light to dark gray to spotlight the floral displays. Instead of tulips, extremely popular with the height of the Dutch tulip mania, de Bruyn has depicted roses in full bloom. The open rose blooms, painted in a sparkling white color, face the viewer at the center. These roses, interspersed with greenery and other small blue and yellow flowers contrasting with the white blooms, reach out and away from the heart of the arrangements. De Bruyn’s treatment of the vases in this pair of paintings is quite superb, the stems of the flowers seen through the thick glass and water, the reflections of the window and the sunlight caught within the vases are beautifully observed. Set against a simple background these are beautifully composed works that perfectly demonstrate de Bruyn’s exceptional handling of still life. De Bruyn adds small details such as drops of water on the leaves and a few of the leaves are turning brown, effects that help create a realistic scene.

- Flowers II, 2020, Mary Finlayson, Gouache on Paper- Floral/Still Life/BlackBy Mary FinlaysonLocated in 326 N Coast Hwy. | Laguna Beach, CAMary Finlayson Flowers II Gouache on Paper 22.5 x 17 inches, framed Mary Finlayson’s interest in painting interior spaces portrays how environments reveal identity. Navigating the themes of intimacy, memory, and self, Finlayson’s gouache paintings reflect the vulnerable narratives unveiled through ownership of possessions. Flattening the perspective of each scene, her still lifes provide a voyeuristic glimpse in to each curated space. Considering the personal attachments and importance of objects, her compositions skew and distort to capture the feeling of a space rather than an accurate depiction. Rendered with vivid color and an emphasis on texture, Finlayson creates spaces that are partly real and partly imagined. Mary Finlayson lives and works in San Francisco as an artist, teacher, and art therapist. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Queen's University, a Graduate Degree in Art Therapy...Category
