Pink Vanitas, 2024Oil on Linen12x16""Framed. Vanitas is Latin for vanity. It is a genre in paintings to symbolize themes such as mortality and the passage of time. The skull repres ents mortality, while the seed/flowers indicate cycles of life. The candle represents a passage in time. I wanted a "pretty" vanities painting, and chose blush tones, allowing the natural canvas to show through the paint. Show more
