Description from the seller
Still life with cactus is a 70x100 cm painting by contemporary artist Ernest García. This painting proposes a vibrant dialogue between the natural and the domestic, where the upright cactus becomes the focal point of the composition, symbolizing resilience and Mediterranean character. The intense green of its spiny leaves contrasts with the solid, warm red pot, anchoring the scene with strong chromatic presence. beside it, a decorated bowl holds luminous lemons, one whole and one cut, adding freshness and an immediate sense of aroma and tactility.
The deep blue background, almost uninterrupted, amplifies the presence of the objects and reinforces the clear, sunny atmosphere, while the striped surface introduces rhythm and geometric order. The palette — blues, greens, yellows, and reds — creates a lively, direct, celebratory harmony, evoking southern light and the simplicity of Mediterranean interiors.
The brushwork is loose and expressive, revealing the pictorial gesture and giving each element an almost sculptural presence. The overall scene conveys both calm and vitality: a daily moment elevated to a pictorial scene, where domesticated nature and common objects coexist in luminous balance.
