This watercolour still life painting of a bowl with eggs is by Pat Service.Pat Service is considered one of Canada’s finest contemporary artists.
During her decades-long career, she has explored various styles from traditional landscapes and still lifes to abstraction and minimalism.
This charming little watercolour of a bowl with eggs may be a homage to the work of Canadian artist Mary Pratt, whose work in the 1970s celebrated images of the domestic lives of women. In this piece, a white ceramic bowl decorated with orange polka dots sits in the center frame with four white eggs inside it. The backdrop in blue and a rich golden colour allows the bowl to take precedence.
“I attempt to create a painting that is engaging, touching on universal sentiment and rewarding further contemplation.” Pat Service
