The Art of Slowing Down

The Art of Slowing Down

6x12 in. oil on linen panel

It’s funny how still life painting teaches you its own kind of patience. You start by chasing the light—and then you realize it’s asking you to pause instead. The Art of Slowing Down began on one of those quiet afternoons when everything felt suspended: the hum of the day fading, sunlight stretching across the table, the soft weight of calm settling in.

There’s a rhythm to these moments that’s easy to miss until you stop moving so fast. The gentle arrangement of everyday objects, the play between shadow and warmth—it all feels like an invitation to breathe a little deeper, to notice a little more.

This piece is really about presence. About that rare, tender space between doing and being. I love how it captures the stillness that lingers when the world finally slows down—a small, painted reminder to make room for the quiet.
