Media: Acrylic on 1/8" Ampersand Gessobord
Size: 6x8 in
It's almost as if these two silver pieces were saying to me, "see we can reflect life better than you". They are such showoffs! I made a happy discovery recently, the silver tea set believed to have been sent to Goodwill was actually wrapped up and still in storage. Yay! I've been looking for silver pieces so I could paint more reflections and upset with myself for having thought I'd given this set away. A friend gave me this fun patchwork and embroidered piece of fabric which has been sitting around for over a year because I had no idea how to use it. I set these silver pieces on the fabric and wham that was it, in fact I never even moved them for this painting. Sometimes good things just happen.
My camera is pumping up brushwork, things you don't see or notice when viewing the original painting. The blue background area in the photo is an example, the brushwork just pops out, something you don't see much in the original painting.
