This Painting is Garbage

                                             6x6 $90

On Sunday we went on a 20 mile bike ride through lovely desert scenery and you would think I'd be inspired to paint it. But no- my eye went to a nicely shaped green bottle lying alongside the road. Garbage. Thus the title....I thought it deserved a hot sunny palette to make up for its shameful treatment in the past.

  3. Love the painting and we can all relate. I am constantly on the lookout for anything to paint- and always the unexpected is more interesting. Great job!

  5. Ha, you made me laugh. Of course your eye would go to the bottle, mine would have noticed it too I think. Love the glass against the orange-red background. Very nice work!
