Thom Atkinson, Photographer, London

Description

This still life photograph by London-based photographer Thom Atkinson features a rectangular wooden artist paint palette centered on a weathered, scratched green workbench surface. The palette shows thick layers of dried oil paint in brown, blue, red, and yellow, alongside a thumb hole cutout. Two small containers holding liquid sit near the right edge of the palette, casting soft shadows to the right. The composition is shot from directly overhead under direct directional lighting, highlighting the distressed textures of the wood and the dried paint pigments across the frame.
