After Pay available at checkout or contact us about Layby.

This still life painting features three vintage tea cups stacked atop one another, each delicate cup holding a piece of history. These cherished items once belonged to my great-great-aunt Winny, and they serve as a tangible connection to our past. We collect such heirlooms to honour the memories and stories they carry, preserving a piece of our heritage.

These objects remind us of the lives and experiences of those who came before us. They symbolise continuity and the enduring ties that bind generations. Holding on to them allows us to feel connected to our roots and the people who shaped our family's history. This painting captures the sentimentality and significance of preserving family treasures, reflecting our deep-seated need to remember and cherish the past.

Naomi is an accomplished Australian oil painter whose work epitomises imaginative realism, drawing heavily on the classical academic principles of the old masters. Rooted in a foundation of meticulous technique, Naomi's art is often autobiographical and allegorical, reflecting deep personal experiences of grief and faith.

With an emphasis on nostalgia and beauty, Naomi creates pieces that transcend mere aesthetics, inviting viewers to engage in critical thinking. Believing that art should be inherently beautiful regardless of its subject matter, Naomi strives to produce works that not only captivate the eye but also stir the soul.

Through her practice, Naomi endeavours to keep alive the timeless elegance of classical techniques while infusing them with contemporary relevance.
