Original oil Painting On Board By Stella Benfold.
Stella Benford
Fellowship of Professional & Amateur Artists
Stella has been an FPAA member for many years. She comes from a creative family and was resident potter at Wicksteed Park for 20 years. Since leaving there, she has produced a prodigious amount of work - paintings, pottery, papier-mâché figures - and most recently, welded metallic sculptures.
She is inspired by the work of many artists - including Chardin's still lifes, Vermeer's atmospheric interiors, portraits by Rembrandt and Velazquez, ceramics by Hans Coper and Grayson Perry, and Rodin's sculpture. Many modern artists and friends also inspire her.
Stella has won numerous prizes for painting over the years.
This piece shows a fabulous study of a reclining female. Looking relaxed and completely at ease Stella has captured the subject perfectly. The flowers and fruit set upon the table add to the rooms calming ambience brilliantly.
Painted on linen stretched over board, Unframed but with a hanging hook to the back so she can be hung simply as she is for a super contemporary look.
61 cm x 51 cm approximately.
