Full Glass, Empty Bottle


Oil on gessobord, 5x7"

I started this one about a week ago and worked on it for an hour or two at a time since then. I haven’t done many paintings of glass before, so it was an interesting challenge. Of course, this was a pretty simple glass. Because I worked on it over the course of about a week, I was able to paint in layers and build the color up over time. This was helpful for making some of the reflections in the bottle and in the light shining through the wine.
