Let's Get Out of Here

Hello, everyone! No, I didn't fall off the face of the earth. My art life has had to take a back seat to remodeling our kitchen and updating our house for an upcoming rehearsal dinner for my nephew, to be held at our house. (Really, the dinner is the catalyst for getting our house done).
So I have recently made time for a few paintings, and here is the first one - a favorite subject of mine - transparent glass, and the color orange. I'm not sure who wants to get out of here - is it the slices that are stuffed into the jar, or the "free" slices who don't want to be stuffed into the jar?

  2. Glad to see you painting. Great job on this. I love the gray and orange. I like how you simplified the shapes of the oranges. And wonderful transparency and reflections in the glass.
