This is the third painting from the weekend workshop. I was amazed at how much duller the reflection was relative to the brilliance of the orange! Given that blue is the compliment to orange [ie mixed together they would be dull greyish] I shouldn’t have been so surprised. I love painting glass and this was a good challenge for the last painting of the workshop. One more weekend of focusing on, and painting, what I see – not orange sections and a blue bottle! So fun!
This blog documents my creative journey with watercolor, mixed media, & oil painting. I'm enjoying myself immensely and hope you find something uplifting in my paintings and/or their stories.
