I was very surprised at how poor some of the artists were at still life tonight. As a photographer, composition (as well as light) was always central to what I did, and I find it hard to believe that some of these artists did not seem to have the ability to create a proper tight composition to paint. They just strewed objects about in a scattered fashion. They did not seem to have a grasp of the concept of drawing the eye into the painting. Quite surprising that, as some of them seem to have real talent.
