Oil on Canvasboard

Signed P Czainski (lower left)
Paul Czainski’s Still Life After Chardin transforms homage into reflection. Echoing Chardin’s quiet order, this still life of apples, pewter and earthenware appears to peel from its canvas, the painted ‘paper’ curling at the edges. This trompe-l’œil device bridges illusion and decay, suggesting how time erodes artistic ideals. Both technically precise and conceptually playful, Czainski’s work reimagines tradition as something fragile, layered and persistently alive.
Paul Czainski is the most sought-after specialty trompe l’oeil artist, muralist, and specialist decorator.
He is inspired by pattern, decorative effects, chiaroscuro, and the fantastic.
In his paintings and drawings, he is able to tell a story or bring to our attention the hidden beauty or excitement of the mundane.
Czainski works in virtually any medium, from charcoal, etching, and drawing through to oils and acrylics.
