Initially, this painting was more realistic but also more timid. I loaded up the paint on the blue bottle and eliminated fussy details elsewhere. I like the reincarnation better. I suspect I will have to "oil out" this painting as clearly some areas are drying more matte than others.
Well, naturally, I like this version....it's probably more abstract and expressive than your first version....and abstract is me! I love the thick paint and obvious brush strokes.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous painting, Susan! Love the oranges with the blue. And I really like the reflections in the glass of these bottles.
ReplyDeleteLove the drama and lighting and minimalism in this!
ReplyDeleteSimple, direct, powerful and bold - I love it!

I really enjoy your work Susan. It would be impossible for me to pick a favorite, but this one would probably be in the top picks. Cannot wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteThat reflection on the brown bottle is great. I like this especially well.
