"Through the Looking Glass"
6"x6" $90
Well, I know a glass bowl isn't exactly a "looking glass", but it was the best title I could come up with. If you think of a better one, let me know. This painting just seems to be all about the glass.
You've neutralized the orange and blue just enough to make for a very harmonious compli- mentary scheme. Here's a success story for breaking color to dirty it just slightly. The result is far more pleasing than straight out of the tube color.
Lovely piece Layne - especially the circles you have going on between the plate and the rim of the glass bowl.
ReplyDeleteYes it does - and it's gorgeous! Terrific transparency and reflections!
ReplyDeleteYou really nailed that glass bowl! Great painting--love the composition.
