Many of Doig's pictures are landscapes, with a number harking back to the snowy scenes of his childhood in Canada. His works are frequently based on found photographs (and sometimes on his own), but are not painted in a photorealist style, Doig instead using the photographs simply for reference. Peter Doig’s work captures moments of tranquillity, which contrast with uneasy oneiric elements. He uses unusual colour combinations and depicts scenes from unexpected angles, all contributing to give his work a magic realist feel.
stvalentine stvalentine on 11 Jan 11Uniquely designed by Tse & Tse Associees, the Mizra Stand Up Teapot will surely catch every eye's attention. Made of porcelain with a wooden handle, the Mizra Teapot is clean and elegant enough to be on any table for a relaxing tea drinking session. I see a cute little banana boat on one's table in here when used. On the other hand, Mizra can also be one of your stylish decors when not in use by simply letting it stand on its end when not in use. You can also set it aside in your cupboard with no problem at all, as it surely will save a lot of your space.-via
