I wanted to create a composition using pears. I found beautiful purple lilies and added them to a green glass vase. I placed a green lit candle on a wrought iron stand beside the lilies. I added a clay pot and lastly two yellow pears. I completed the scene by adding a beautiful blue background giving this arrangement a harmonious visual with soft lighting and earthy tones.
Oranges in Glass with Hydrangeas
I wanted to create an inviting scene using mandarin oranges and a beautiful martini glass. I placed four oranges inside the greenish glass and added two small oranges at the base. I added a large orange at the base as well. A lit orange candle sits beside the oranges. I enhanced the background by adding a warm texture. The result is a simple picture that exudes warm lighting and gives the scene a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
The next image is similar but instead of a candle, I place purple hydrangeas into a terracotta pot. Again, I added a warm and inviting background to enhance the beauty of the main image.
Pumpkins and Yellow Lilies
It is Fall and what says Fall other than orange pumpkins. I placed mini pumpkins into a martini glass, and added a green wax candle with flame. Yellow lilies in a green glass vase completed the basic composition. I then added a light blue texture for the background, which creates a warm and cozy scene.
Oranges and Lilies
I placed some mandarin oranges into a goblet. I added some gorgeous orange lilies into a blue glass vase. I placed a terracotta pot on the side for a rustic touch. I photographed this against a white backdrop and added textures to give this photo a painted look.
Yellow Lilies and Pears
A vibrant yellow lily stands elegantly in a glass vase beside a martini glass holding a pear, with two more pears placed on a soft green cloth. The muted background enhances the natural colors and simple beauty of the arrangement.
Green Pears and Yellow Lilies
I had an old silver teapot that I had sitting on my credenza. I polished it and filled it with vibrant orange Peruvian lilies. I placed three green pears at the base of the teapot. I placed beautiful yellow lilies in a green glass vase. I placed a fat orange candle on a pewter decorative candle holder and I added an orange/brown texture to give the arrangement depth and warmth.
Candles and Pears
I did a number of similar still life images–similar but different. They all utilize the candles of green and orange, but the vases are different. I used the tall blue vase in some and the red vase in others. Although the theme is similar, they stand on their own as a separate piece of art.
Red Apples and Orange Lilies
I wanted to create a scene using red on red: I bought a red glass vase and I pared it with two ruby red apples. I created a staircase of candles- each one lower than the previous one. I added beautiful orange lilies to the red vase, I also placed some lovely mini yellow carnations in a small black and white ceramic vase. I added a rustic texture to the background. The scene exudes warmth and calm, complemented by the earthy tones of the setting.
Oranges, Lilies, and Blue Vase
A vibrant arrangement features orange lilies in a blue vase, accompanied by a woven basket of mandarin oranges and three lit candles. The calm composition is enhanced by the contrasting colors and soft lighting. The orange and green candles add to the calming atmosphere.
Lilies, Apples, and Limes
I always feel that a black background adds a dramatic flair to a composition. This still life creation features a blue vase with orange lilies. Green apples sit at the base of the blue jug. I had a martini glass and added four limes to match the apples. I added a thick orange candle placed on a pewter candle holder. The orange in the candle offsets the orange in the lilies. The black background enhances the reflections.
