Original Oil Painting Copper Challenge



Copper Challenge
Sold

10" x 10"
Painted on gesso panel.

I painted this for DPW weekly challenge which was to paint something copper.  I was lucky enough to have a brother who had a small copper cup that my dad used to put nail files and toe nail clippers in. It was very old and kind of dull. To make it sparkle a little more I added the Christmas bulbs and bow and enhance the color reflections I saw in the cup. Copper was quite a challenge. I will have to try to fine more copper items to paint that are a bit more reflective.
