Italian Soda by Char Fitzpatrick | Dessert Still Life

I love food and particularly Italian food. I worked in a family-owned Italian deli for years, appreciating the look of the food as well. I enjoyed the challenge of pouring an Italian soda in one of the beautiful reflective glasses and rapidly painting it. I painted it lovingly large.

Glass and Eggs Still Life,canvas,oil painting,20x16,Framed,Barbara Haviland

This still life was done from a photo that I used from Wet Canvas. (Thanks). If you belong to the site, they have a marvelous reference library. I loved how this was set up and I took forever to get it right.   I like how it came out. The painting measures 20"x16" and is framed making it a little larger. I love how the blue jar and background of Yellow orche meld for some contrast. The container with the eggs is smokey looking but it doesn't show in the photo.

Painting Glass by Pamela Blaies

Apples and a Green Glass Bottle

14" x 11"

oil on linen

Surrounded by a sea of cool colors, the one Red Delicious apple in front tries to steal the show. But I think the star is the green glass bottle. Painting glass with all of the dimension, subtle color and reflections is challenging and fun!

Petite Painting #11 by Pamela Blaies

Red Grapes in a Glass

6" x 6"

oil on linen panel

Here is Petite Painting #11.  This painting is all about the light which seems to bounce all over this painting.  I toned the linen a bright red to start out. I think this really made a difference in the red grapes looking luminous, since the reddest-red was directly applied to the white canvas.  I used the palette knife to highlight the grapes, stem and the cup's shadow and was able to get the glass to really light up with crisp, thick pure white highlights.

This is my favourite painting at the moment, and took forever to paint :( but I'm finally happy with it after a lot of fiddling with the tones of the plate and cup

Here are some more of my 5 lbs. of lemons from Costco!  I am almost done with them, gradually using them for other things besides a cup of tea.  They have been good sports about lining up for me to paint them.

I went to Costco to get some things for a luncheon at my house with girlfriends.  One friend drinks tea, so I bought a bag of lemons.  What was I thinking!  I got 5lbs of lemons and as it turned out she didn't even have tea that day!  So I am thinking I am going to have to make homemade lemonade...humm, I think I need a 5lb bag of sugar! 

Glass Hat

This peach is just a little too big for the sugar bowl I put it in. When I put the top on, it looked like a glass hat.

Da Juice

I started this with a nectarine instead of the orange. After wiping it twice, and getting very discouraged, I decided to switch to the orange. And it quickly came together. I realized that the nectarine had been too busy and contrasty and was distracting from the glass. The orange worked much better.

Rosemary and Lemon

I was amazed to discover the wide variety of martinis people make these days. Not being much of a drinker, I had no idea.
I found the softness and subtle tonal shifts very different from my usual subject matter. It made for an interesting challenge.

Dry Idea

I had so much fun ... well after I got over the agonizing part ... painting the last one I decided to start a new series. I don't know how many there will be, but I'm calling it Things in Glass. Which makes for many possibilities. One of the fun things to do with things in glass is to add a liquid, in this case a martini. The refraction of the liquid lets you see what's in it from the top and the side at the same time!
