NARFA Memories

NARFA Memories

A little warm up before I drive back into the piles of back logged commissions I have collected. 2016 was not as productive as 2015, the muses were not generous this passed year. Though I acted like they were and kept taking commissions. 2016 has been in a two words... Disappointing, and Traumatic...

Anyhow, here is a still-life... I know still-lifes are not very exciting for most. For me however, they are very cathartic. There is no stress or expectation of creating art of something that does not exist. They let me play with light, shadow, and mood.

This one is called “NARFA Memories”. As many of NARFA's memories (for me) are around a bottle of scotch, and a NARFA shot glass. Though this should be a bottle of Dalmore and not Glenlivet, but its a pretty bottle that was laying around. I also like panting colored glass.

Enjoy.
