'INSIDE OUT' BY REBECCA HEPWORTH, 2021
$680
Oil Paint on rag paper, ready to hang.
Signed on the back.
This artwork comes with an external frame.
Framed dimensions (centimeters) - 55(W) x 45(H).
A Still Life, painted Alla Prima from life, of my favourite hat wearing a paper-mache skull.
This artwork is an exploration of the physical qualities of oil paint and the celebration of how it can be used to shape narratives of the symbolic objects in our lives.
Placed together is my favourite hat, ironically wearing a paper-mache skull relating to the skull of the King's Jester in the “gravedigger scene” in the tragic Hamlet plot and used by Shakespeare to create some comic relief. I bought this skull to escalate a joke I share with my husband, Michael, who loves to chat.
Despite the element of macabre, this painting is about the joy of life and animating our stories with both inanimate objects and paint.
This artwork was a finalist in the City of Belmont Art Awards, 2021.

'THE BALANCED (STILL) LIFE' BY REBECCA HEPWORTH, 2021
$280
This still life, inspired by an advertisement in a grocery catalog, was a study in the medium of pastel. The precarious arrangement of the cone and fruit as well as the potential health risks of consuming too little or too much fruit lead me to consider what a health pyramid for an emerging artist might look like. Practicing balance and well-being as an creative can be an art in itself.
