Trio Oil on canvas Board 8 x10 $125


       This painting, done with brush as well as palette knife captures the scene with 3 bottles of wine from Italy in the classic straw basket. The background, done impasto with palette knife, is shaded gray with just a hint of color to provide contrast to the green bottles with straw basketry. Finally, the shadowed areas beneath the table provide sharp contrast to the light tablecloth and napkin. One bottle has been at least partially consumed while two others awaiting opening.
