Citrus, Bottles and Pot

Citrus, Bottles and Pot

Oil on Board (8x8in)

I started this as a demo for a still-life workshop last weekend.  I had a request to paint glass which for me, needs no encouragement.  I love the abstract quality of glass.  For this set up we painted coloured glass which is so much easier than painting the clear variety,as it can be treated as a solid object.  Just add reflections, highlights and transmitted light and hey presto, we have coloured glass!
