Tenebrism-Realism Florals

Melissa loves to use one of the old master techniques when painting her flowers. Tenebrism is an art historical term derived from the Italian word ‘tenebroso’ meaning dark, gloomy, or obscured. Closely related to ‘chiaroscuro’, the term tenebrism is reserved for the darkest, most theatrical examples of art, in which figures or objects emerge from entirely black backgrounds, as if lit by a spotlight. This style of art creates a feeling of distinct separation between the subject and their backdrop. Sometimes art historians call the style ‘dramatic illumination.’
