"The Chinese vase, with plum blossoms against cobalt blue, and the little solid silver christening cup were both in my London studio, and appeared in a number of still lives twenty years ago. I don’t do as many of this sort of painting now, but there was a demand for still lives from the London gallery I was showing with in those days, and I’d often find antique frames to make them sparkle." Binnie, April 2022.
