Asian Still Life

This tapestry shows a charming Asian still life image, based on the work of artist Elise Remender. Her pieces are focused on the lovely situations created by still lifes and flowers, and this piece takes on an Asian or Oriental theme. The traditional objects from Asian or Oriental culture are the cherry blossoms and buds, the Chinese teapot and the Oriental urn. These are on a backdrop of an Asian styled wallpaper behind this still life scene in this Oriental wall hanging. The delicacy of these objects reflects the delicate and almost ephemeral way they are portrayed in this work by Remender. "Realism has so many rules" according to Remender and her works, with the use of transparency with the use of color, suggests a world that is slightly in an impressionistic realm. This tapestry "Asian Still Life" is unlined and has a tunnel for easy hanging.
