A vibrant still life bathed in the glow of synthetic sunset tones, Golden Hour Still Life captures the clash of leisure and decay. Familiar objects—a bottle of Club-Mate, a pack of chewing gum, a knife, and a bowl of cigarette butts—are rendered with bold color contrasts and stylized shadows. A skull peeks from behind a potted plant, quietly anchoring the composition in vanitas tradition. This painting turns a moment of casual indulgence into a charged reflection on vitality, vice, and the passage of time.
