8 x 10"oil on panel
I decided I needed to practice painting reflections and this french press, which makes excellent coffee by the way, was a subject that I thought would do that. This was one of the hardest subjects I've ever painted. What color is copper, anyway? Between the glass and the copper and the reflections on the table, it seemed like there were more reflections than not. I wanted to show the reflections and shadows and still keep the piece painterly. I think I sort of succeeded, if not wonderfully so. Perhaps too shiny?
