Description
Robert LeMay "Still Life" - Medium: oil on canvas - Signed lower left and dated 1994Measures 58½" x 86½" (framed).“Light is the focus of all my work. I like the simple beauty of everyday objects. Theyevoke whole worlds and universes when placed upon a table. The flowers and fruits ofstill life recur over and over through the history of art because they are life affirmingobjects of contemplation. I’m interested in how we look at a thing, an apple, a swatchof fabric, drapery, or the light on a table, now, as compared to, say, how Cezanne paintedan apple, or how Dali painted bread, or how Manet painted lilacs, or how Cotan painteda melon. My paintings seek to intensely look, to delve into an understanding of the natureof seeing, and to record a few of the infinite combinations possible on a table, well lit.”- Robert LemayRobert Lemay graduated from the University of Alberta with a BFA in 1984.
