Sometimes ordinary isn't so ordinary.... I chose this subject to paint as a kind of "sister" painting to my painting "Laila's platter, Ella's glas" thinking that it would be a relatively simple painting to create. Boy was I off... For those of you who are painters, you know that a painting happens at the edges.... edges are almost everything! And this composition has more edges than I thought could fit in one image... I for some reason didn't realize this when choosing this to paint today,.. but must have been attracted to the image in my dish drainer for some reason!
