Still Life #1

This is a still life I did this year, with charcoal. I chose the items and set them up. I chose the glove and the cushion because they had this sort of used velvet-y texture and the lightbulb because it was so WHITE but still had even whiter reflections (but I'm not really happy with the lightbulb). I really wanted to challenge myself with the vase and putting the trumpet behind it and I ended up having a lot of fun TRYING to imitate it!

  1. That's awesome that you wanted to challenge your self! The vase looks very realistic and the trumpet and the vase seem to work very nicely together. The shadows under the cushion are really nice. One thing, The lightbulb doesn't really look like it is the right shape? It might just be how I am looking at it but I am not sure.

  2. Thank you!! I completely agree with you, the shape of the lightbulb isn't right! I got really frustrated with the lightbulb haha.
