Poivron rouge  – Simple life

Poivron rouge – Simple life by Virginie Martin Blaise focuses on a single red pepper, isolated against a light background, inviting close attention to its form, texture, and color. The composition is deliberately simple, allowing the subject to occupy the space with quiet intensity and visual presence.

Through careful observation and restrained means, the work explores the beauty of everyday objects and the subtle variations of light on organic surfaces. The red pepper becomes both a familiar object and a pictorial study of volume, material, and balance.

Part of the Simple life series, this still life painting reflects an ongoing interest in modest subjects and contemplative realism. It celebrates slowness, attention, and the poetic potential of ordinary life.
