"Brass on Red" --- Sold

Click Here to Bid
This one I was concentrated on the skills of depicting a metallic surface. The reflections on the small brass thingy were so rich. The perspective needed to be accurate for sure. I spent quite a time on it. It was a very different approach than that I used painting flowers. It was fun but tiresome.

Beautiful painting! You did such a good job on the metal. The red is so vibrant and looks wonderful reflected in the tea pot. I like the way the values where the box and pot meet are so close that they nearly merge. That had to be very difficult to master.

I think your concentration on the brass was well worth the effort. Love the use of red on the brass. Always learning from you.
