Triumvirate
(18" x 18", oil on canvas)

By positioning my light source to pass through both transparent bottles, I was able to pick up beautiful reflections of the red and yellow liquids, enlivening what may have been a rather sombre piece. I was also mindful not to over-work the delicately frayed edges of the linen cloth. (And while this little texture is simply a small detail, I loved the effect, so you may expect to see it resurface in another piece.)
