Wine Bottles





It's dreary and rainy here today, so I had to dodge raindrops as I took this outside to take a photo.

I liked this one.  I've painted these bottles once before here, but I like this one better.  The perspective was more of a challenge.  It actually isn't quite finished.  I didn't put the words on the label because I was afraid I'd mess it up!  So when it's really dry, I'll go back and try to finish the label.  Kim Rempel painted wine bottles too, and I like how she handled the label.

  5. Dites-moi ne feriez-vous pas la fête ensemble Kim et vous ?!!! Les bouteilles sont vides!
    Enfin vous êtes pardonnées l'une et l'autre car le résultat est très beau.
    Il n'est pas simple de peindre des bouteilles, c'est un excellent exercice...
    Bises, j'ai hâte de voir la peinture achevée.

  7. This is a difficult subject to draw accurately. You did a really nice job! I especially like the way the burgundy top of the front bottle comes forward in space toward the viewer. Fantastic!
