Color Pencils in Vase, 2023 Oil on Panel 6x6

Continuing with subjects small and vintage, these 2 of color pencils take on 2 different points of view.  I've painted the little vase on the left in other still lifes.  It is just the perfect little Japanese shape.  The pencils on the right leave the impression with me of Pop Art. I also think they appear personified.  LOL

The surprising thing about the process of these small simple still lifes is how difficult they are to paint.  It's the very straight edges and the perspective that demand a steady hand.
