I have loved the still life paintings since I was a child. In this particular genre are usually displayed: objects, dead animals, flowers, stones, shells, food, books, vases, etc.
It's curious that generally I do not like to cut flowers or to see dead birds and animals. Yet, realism and hidden symbolism is what attracts me to this style. This painting style began to be very popular since the 17th-18th centuries because the interaction between art and nature was something very common in that time. It is also a very popular style, and even nowadays, searched and loved by collectors.
This is an acrylic painting I did few years ago and I hope you will enjoy watching it. :)

Time bites deeply
From the stoned-still flavor
On a rose petal.
Only the peace of the room
Could still hear
An echo hidden in a shell.
