Seeing Double

I've really enjoyed painting this "Martini Series". The tricky thing about capturing these cocktails is that if my stance moves even a fraction of an inch to the left or right, the reflections and colors change completely. Its a bit "crazy making". I start questioning myself, 'didn't I just see a mid-value amber colored spot in the upper left area of the glass ... or was that my imagination? Then I have to reposition myself and start searching for it, or move on and wonder where it went - or if it actually existed. I also have to remind myself what was my reason for painting this particular set up. In this case it was the double image of the olive pimento being reflected up into the top surface. A subtle little gorgeous spot of red to break up the sea of cool colors... its a good enough reason for me. Now... where is that amber spot hiding?

A Tall Order

Coping with hurricanes is enough to drive one to drinking. We were spared from disaster, but just barely. The telephone pole in front of our place broke in half, as well as two power lines, keeping us in the dark till today. This is nothing compared to what happened in other areas. Power, straight up - it's good stuff.

Ah, TGIF. Not that my weekends are any different than my hectic work week, but at least the potential is there. Love the idea of kicking back and sipping on a tall, frosty something or other.
