Wine & Cheese Anyone?
This is my first and only still life. It is the product of a artists’ workshop that I signed up for. Preparation for the course involved designing a still life arrangement and photographing it, to be transferred to the canvas and painted during the workshop. Instructions were to “make it something that you feel a connection with and actually want to paint”.
As my husband and I have enjoyed many an afternoon glass of wine with baguette and cheese, this seemed an obvious choice. When designing the still life, I didn’t think too much about the various challenges involved, such as how to paint a strawberry, a baguette, or the transparency of the wine glasses…I definitely learned a lot along the way and had a lot of fun doing it!
