Original Oil Painting Still Life – Garlic, Tomato, Kitchen Wall Art (9x12 inches)

This original 9x12 inch oil painting features a simple, striking still life of a garlic bulb and a red tomato set against a rich blue background. Painted as an alla prima study, this piece captures the warmth, texture, and subtle color shifts found in everyday kitchen objects.

The contrast between the soft, neutral tones of the garlic and the saturated reds of the tomato create a bold yet balanced composition. Loose, expressive brushwork gives the painting a sense of immediacy while still maintaining a strong sense of form and light.

This piece is part of an ongoing exploration of traditional still life painting—focusing on color relationships, value, and the beauty of ordinary subjects.
