Still life project


This was a source based still life. The second project in my painting class. I used a loose reference for my painting. I wanted to depict a surreal atmosphere. The bottles frame the piece, as if looking into a scene, and the other pottery seems to be floating on water, while they're laid into sand.
That was my original intention, though I'm not sure if I succeeded as well as I could. The rendering is average and the use of water is somewhat blurred and loose.
The colours are bright and help give the definition of stark contrasts of warms and cools.
The total time was: (later)
Media: Oils
Canvas: stretched by hand, 36x36 (I believe, I'll have to check again)
