Painting More Wine Glasses...

A Funny Thing Happens When You Really Look and See.


Blue Tini

When you take the time to truly look at something and analyze what you see, it is amazing to realize how much is there.

Cava

Take a glass of wine for instance.  If it is a white wine, like a Chardonay, a Fume Blanc, or a Spanish Cava, the color may be almost clear, a buttery golden yellow, or anything in between.    You can see reflections of what ever surrounds you in the glass, and those reflections are upside down!!!  Now if you haven't noticed this previously, I bet you will the next time you pour a white.  If it is a red wine the color can be mauve to black.  And those room reflections are not to be seen.  


Another Glass


And then there is the martini glass full of clear liquid...same thing...upside down reflections.  And boy, are these fun to paint!

Red, White and Blue Tini

And of course, Spanish Cava.

Champagne was the first sparkling wine, but only wines made in the Champagne region of France may be called Champagne.  Spain produces many fine sparkling wines, called 'cava' after the cellars in which the wine is produced.  These wines are made in the Chanmpagne method which is the same method used to make Champagne.  The Cavas we drank were light, dry, magnificent.

The sipping went on and on...with dinner, with dessert, with conversation late into the night and early morning hours.  How could I not return to my studio without thoughts of painting glasses filled with wine?
