By the candlelight

Warmth, spilling candle, and the slow passage of time

A candle in a small candleholder, set on a table, burning steadily - and the wax slowly finding its way down the sides, pooling and hardening as the flame above it glows on. This is a painting about the warmth of candlelight, yes, but also about something quieter and more philosophical - the way time passes, visible and unhurried, in the slow drip of melting wax.

By the Candlelight is a painting that rewards stillness. The longer you look, the more you feel the warmth of the flame, the intimacy of the table, the gentle inevitability of the wax. It is a piece that belongs in a quiet room - a study, a bedroom, a place where time is allowed to pass at its own pace.

Collecting original art

Owning an original painting means owning something no one else in the world has. This piece was painted entirely by hand by Marta Stolarska - every flicker of warmth observed, every trail of dripping wax considered with care. 

A candle, a table, and the wax that marks the hours - a painting about warmth and the beauty of time passing.
