Blueberry Bliss is an intimate 5x5 inch original oil painting that celebrates the natural beauty of fresh blueberries. Created by contemporary fine artist Richard Wieth, this small-format still life captures a cluster of plump blueberries rendered in luminous blues ranging from deep cobalt to bright cerulean, nestled among rich green foliage with subtle hints of burgundy and yellow highlights.
 
Wieth's confident brushwork brings energy and spontaneity to this classic still life subject. The visible canvas texture and bold, direct painting technique create a sense of immediacy, as if the artist captured these berries at the peak of ripeness. The play of light across the rounded forms demonstrates Wieth's understanding of color and shadow, while his loose, expressive style adds contemporary vitality to the traditional still life genre.
 
Richard Wieth approaches still life painting with a philosophy of directness and emotional connection. In Blueberry Bliss, he captures not just the visual appearance of the berries, but their essence—the summer sweetness, the tactile quality of their dusted surface, and the organic beauty of nature's perfect forms.
 
Wieth builds the composition with confident brushstrokes that convey both the structure of the berries and the atmosphere surrounding them. The cool blue palette is enlivened by warm undertones and complementary green foliage, creating visual harmony while maintaining the painting's vibrant energy.
