Finding the Right Drawings And Watercolor Paintings for You
Revitalize your interiors — introduce drawings and watercolor paintings to your home to evoke emotions, stir conversation and show off your personality and elevated taste.
Drawing is often considered one of the world’s oldest art forms, with historians pointing to cave art as evidence. In fact, a cave in South Africa, home to Stone Age–era artists, houses artwork that is believed to be around 73,000 years old. It has indeed been argued that cave walls were the canvases for early watercolorists as well as for landscape painters in general, who endeavor to depict and elevate natural scenery through their works of art. The supplies and methods used by artists and illustrators to create drawings and paintings have evolved over the years, and so too have the intentions. Artists can use their drawing and painting talents to observe and capture a moment, to explore or communicate ideas and convey or evoke emotion. No matter if an artist is working in charcoal or in watercolor and has chosen to portray the marvels of the pure human form, to create realistic depictions of animals in their natural habitats or perhaps to forge a new path that references the long history of abstract visual art, adding a drawing or watercolor painting to your living room or dining room that speaks to you will in turn speak to your guests and conjure stimulating energy in your space.
When you introduce a new piece of art into a common area of your home — a figurative painting by Italian watercolorist Mino Maccari or a colorful still life, such as a detailed botanical work by Deborah Eddy — you’re bringing in textures that can add visual weight to your interior design. You’ll also be creating a much-needed focal point that can instantly guide an eye toward a designated space, particularly in a room that sees a lot of foot traffic.
When you’re shopping for new visual art, whether it’s for your apartment or weekend house, remember to choose something that resonates. It doesn’t always need to make you happy, but you should at least enjoy its energy. On 1stDibs, browse a wide-ranging collection of drawings and watercolor paintings and find out how to arrange wall art when you’re ready to hang your new works.
Questions About Still Life Drawing
- What is a still life?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021A still life is a type of painting or drawing portraying an arrangement of different objects. Typically, these subjects include fruit, flowers, dining ware, and glassware.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024No, a still life doesn't have to be realistic. Still life is a genre or type of subject matter. To fit the definition, a piece simply needs to portray inanimate objects. Artists can employ any style they choose to represent the objects in their paintings. Some examples of abstract still-life paintings include Georges Braque's Violin and Candlestick, Pablo Picasso's Still Life with Chair Caning and Paul Cézanne's Fruit Bowl, Glass, and Apples. Find a large collection of still-life paintings on 1stDibs.
- What is Flemish still life?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Pronkstilleven is a type of still life that was developed in the 1640s by Flemish artists.

On 1stDibs, find a variety of original artwork from top artists.
- What is Dutch still life?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Dutch still life paintings are painted works of art depicting everyday objects that were produced in the Netherlands during the 16th and 17th centuries.

- What is a still-life painting?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
A still- life painting depicts inanimate, everyday objects.
- Why is it called still life?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 26, 2024Why it is called still life has to do with the history of the art genre. Still life painting became a distinct genre thanks to the work of late 16th- and 17th-century Dutch artists. They called their paintings stilleven, which translates to motionless or silent life in English. This term relates to the fact that Dutch still life artists painted motionless objects such as flowers and fruit. As the genre spread beyond the Netherlands, English-speaking artists referred to it as still life. Shop a selection of still life paintings on 1stDibs.
- What is a still life image?1 AnswerLilac Gallery Ltd.March 17, 2021A 'Still Life' image refers to a work of art where the main subject usually portrays an intimate interior scene showing natural objects like food, flowers, dead animals, plants, rocks, shells, etc. or man-made objects like drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, pipes, etc. which are mostly arranged on top of a flat surface like a table or mantel.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
The subject of a portrait is typically a person; the subject of a still life consists predominantly of inanimate objects.
- Is still life art realism?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not still life art is realism depends on the piece. Dutch still lifes produced during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries are examples of a realistic style. Impressionist and Expressionist still lifes from the late 19th and early 20th centuries are not realistic. Shop a variety of still life art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Although still lifes occur in ancient murals, Jacopo de’Barbari is considered to have painted the first still life, in 1504.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Most people considered the nationality of the still life technique to be Dutch. This is because Realist still life painting originated in Holland in the 16h century. However, artists from other parts of the world also work in the genre. On 1stDibs, shop a range of still life paintings.
- La ChrysomeleFebruary 23, 2021A still life painting portrays inanimate subjects of small to medium size : a bouquet, a cup of fruits, cooking utensils, a set of keys, etc.
Glenn Green GalleriesFebruary 25, 2021A still-life painting is typically a group of arranged objects in an intimate setting.

The American Pop artist made the piece of laser-cut steel and designed it to hang on the wall like a canvas painting. Shop a variety of Tom Wesselmann art on 1stDibs.
