About the Item
During his successful career as a goldsmith the desire to paint grew on Dutch artist René Smoorenburg (1954). The attention to detail, which was of great importance in his work as a goldsmith, proved of great value in painting his realistic still life’s.
In "Blue Plums" the artist's attention to fine detail is traceable in the way he painted the stalk and the bruises on the plums. All the fine details create an effect of trompe-l'oeil, the painting is deceptive realistic.
His work stands in the long tradition of Dutch still life painting, originated in the seventeenth century, with its highly refined and meticulously executed depiction of reality. His work is in the spirit of many of those great works but retains its own distinctive style.
Although René Smoorenburg works at a few paintings at the same time, the time it takes him to finish one individual painting amounts six months. Because of his very detailed style of painting, this time span is necessary to complete the work with a lot of patience and endurance.
In contrast to the masters of the Golden Age, he chooses to emphasize the vulnerability, fragility and imperfection of everyday objects in his still life’s. According to René Smoorenburg, beauty is not perfection, but in the trace of the past and the evidence of enduring ravages of time.
The result of his efforts is admired by many. In our hectic everyday life, Rene's works provide a moment of well-deserved relaxation and tranquility. René invites you to take the time to take a closer look, take in the details, and witness the beauty of simplicity. René's paintings are worlds in which the traces of the past are not erased but cherished, where the imperfect is considered perfect.
The frames used is his works were specially designed by René to isolate his creations and maximize their effect.
