Shimmering Still Life / Une Nature Morte Etincellante

A luminous cubist still life.

Salinas uses a palette of cool colors.

He deftly plays with light and shadow,

The interplay bounces off the items on the table, defining and accentuating the different geometric forms and shapes.

The table shimmers in the center of the painting.

It is almost as if the table is framed, counterposed between the muted background above and the white and blue subtle rectangles of the table cloth below.

This gem is light as air.
