September 24, 2014 in interior styling
Earlier in the year I worked with Beth Evans on this colour story. I had been styling a lot of food and tabletop shoots and this influenced the story and led to using Nature Paint‘s powdered paint products. The act of mixing the paint became similar to cooking and baking. We decided to make the story pale and neutral – the soft colours of pastel confectionary, sugared almonds, pale pinks sitting next to tangerine and aubergine. Soft whites like meringue, whipped from powder into paint. I made little dishes, bowls and discs from air-drying clay that I could paint in the pale tones and food was used to prop the story and create an ambiguity between the processes.
We created a short Issuu publication to show the images. Please click to view it full screen.
We hope you enjoy it.
Thank you to Nature Paint for providing the paint for this story. Find out more about their ethos and colour range on the Nature Paint website.
