In Onions and Garlic, Adrian Newman turns a few ordinary kitchen objects into a calm study of colour and surface. Copper-red onions and pale garlic are painted with loose, fluid brushwork that keeps the composition direct and unpolished. Warm reflections move across the skins of the onions, while the softer whites and greys of the garlic balance the deeper earthy tones. The arrangement feels natural and lightly observed, preserving the atmosphere of a quick studio painting rather than a formal still life. Simple in subject and intimate in scale, the work is intended for everyday interiors and close viewing. A contemporary still life for collectors of painterly domestic imagery and small-scale original oil paintings.
