Two Knives, Glass, Screwdriver

Painting a day: Two Knives, Glass, Screwdriver

"Two Knives, Glass, Screwdriver"
Oil on panel, 2 x 5 inches (5 x 12 cm)

Available: Purchase Information

This piece comes back to the Kaleidoscope series I've been working with. It was actually intended to be larger and more complicated, but I found too many problems with the particular composition. I resolved it simply by taking a slice out of the middle, and the result was a completely different design. As you can imagine, the oriental rug was a real pleasure to paint.

Thanks Jack - it's actually a lot of fun to work so small (though I don't always do so)
