Painting No. 98 - Looking Outside

9" x 12" - Oil on Canvas

No. 98 is back at Trappeze. It was a bit of an odd shot but I loved the way the glass and the bottle were sort of looking out at the outside world. It seemed like they wanted to get out there and explore. The reflections were really cool too from the tree, the table, bottle, etc.

I painted this one just like No. 90 where the whole canvas was black and I just added the lights in. It's so disorienting to work that way but I think it was effective here. The whole act of painting the bottle involved five dabs of white paint - that's it.

I'm totally down to the wire with 99 & 100. I've got them both started but there is still a ways to go so we'll see what happens tomorrow.
