Still Life

This page features just a few of Easton’s still lifes. The full catalogue is currently being compiled.

Still Life of Pansies in a Green Bottle, 1992

‘His flower pieces are another excellence.’ Max Wykes-Joyce, ArtReview (1987)

‘There was a fight over who got the right to purchase Arthur Easton’s trompe l’oeil ‘Still Life with Wooden Box’. Geraldine Norman on the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in The Independent (1990)

‘One of my aims when I compose a painting is to create a feeling of ambiguity and I select and juxtapose objects towards this end. It is a balanced composition but at the same time I attempt to create a slight imbalance – thus a feeling of instability, something about to happen, a feeling of unease, something not quite resolved or completely understood.’ Arthur Easton, profiled by Anthony J Lester, ‘Contemporary British Artists’, Antique Collecting (2001)
