5 Fun Still Life Art Treasures That Remind us of Fall
By Chelsea Reed

When the wind picks up and there’s a chill in the air, that’s when you know it’s sweater weather. But do you also know that it’s time to admire beautiful still life art? Well okay, any time of the year is a good time to admire art. We just can’t help ourselves looking at all the fun different still life art pieces at Seaside Art Gallery!

This classic and beloved genre never gets old. Celebrate fall with gorgeous still life art from Seaside Art Gallery that features the season of changing leaves and pumpkin patches. These five pieces are some of many that showcase talented artists.


Bushel of Gourds by Debra KierceOriginating from the Americas, pumpkins and winter squashes are iconic to fall. They were essential for the survival of Native Americans and colonists alike from long ago and they are enjoyed in American cuisine today. This colorful oil painting is a tribute to the famous vegetable. Their fun variety is sure to perk up any room with the fall spirit.

 

 


This still life bouquet of mums on the table brings an autumn twist to the classic genre. Warm earthy hues grace the neutral tones to create a memorable impression that is soft and rich at the same time. Its wooden frame adds texture and dimension to the soft brushstrokes. 


Soft impressions give way to the distinct definition of lines with this gorgeous watercolor etching of apples on the table. The fruit’s red color provides a splendid contrast to the muted sepia tones in the room. The piece is a great example of dressing a room with simple decor that is festive enough to create a focal point with accessories such as mums on the table or strands of faux fall leaves. 


Pumpkins and apples aren’t the only kinds of bounty from the fall harvest. Grapes reach their peak in the season, too. This rich looking serigraph of wine grapes provides a surprisingly fun alternative to help decorate a kitchen for fall company. Pair it with rustic reds, oranges, and plums to create a bigger impact in the room.


Inspired by the poem from Emily Bronte, this painting is a fantastic tribute to everything we love about autumn. Faded hues of the fall leaves and acorns gather around fresh picked apples and berries from the harvest. Nestled inside a remarkably tiny 4 ½” frame, this piece is a welcome addition to any desk or dresser for a little seasonal cheer.
