HW: ART FEE Still Life’s A still life (plural still life's) is a work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter, typically commonplace objects which may be either natural (food, flowers, dead animals, plants, rocks, or shells) or man-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, pipes, and so on).

3. History: Still Life’s flourished during the 1600s as many artist studied common items; practicing and improving their skills. Scenes may be interpreted as allegories of the seasons, the elements, or the sins of the flesh; they also represent a profound attention to the scientifically correct depiction of natural objects. Many of the most highly skilled practitioners of still-life painting during this period (1600s) were women, whose gender usually excluded them from painting grander subjects, such as histories and allegories.

How to hold the pencil… Don’t hold it all the way down at the tip. You can only move short distances with it. Allow yourself to be fluid with the pencil and your markings.
