What is a still life?
• A still life (plural still lifes [1]) – is a work of art depicting mostly inanimate
subject matter, typically commonplace objects which may be either natural (food, flowers, plants, rocks, or shells) or man-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, and so on)
in an artificial setting.
• still life or still- life –– A picture of inanimate objects.
• Common still life subjects – include vessels, food, flowers, books, clothing.
• Animate means – that which lives or moves, as opposed to inanimate,
that which doesn't live or move.

Common Sense Rules for the classroom when doing still life:
• (Probably cover boxes of objects so that other classes aren’t tempted to touch them.)
• Store your objects in a bag that is labeled with your name on it.
• Remember which box or exact location that you got your objects.
• PUT THEM BACK IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT – PEOPLE ARE SHARING
• Be respectful of the objects. Don’t dent the cans or pull of the flowers. Carry them carefully so you don’t drop them.

Bring in your own objects for your still
life painting.
1 point extra credit per object up to 7 points (no more)But bring in as
many objects as you want.

Bad vs. Good
• Bad- evenly spaced, symmetrical, not touching, plain, boring, same size.
• Good- Overlapping, in groups, touching, asymmetrical, off the paper, different heights.

What makes a good composition?
HOW TO AVOID BORING COMPOSITIONS:
• Large size of objects
• Change the view so it is not just from the side… change the angle…
• Change the placement so that it is not in the middle.- to the side…
• Line the objects up so they overlap or are stacked… make sure they are not evenly spread and boring.
