Light Bulb in Wrappings



















Light Bulb in Wrappings - oil on linen canvas - 12"x10" 
Private Collection, New York City

This painting was a wonderfully interesting and rewarding challenge.

It can be amazingly insightful to see how you tackle certain subjects, and this painting was no exception.
How to compose and render bubble wrap, a crumpled white foam sheet and cardboard, all bathe in natural light.

You could say I had a sort of 'Light Bulb' moment!

Hope you Like it. - Richard.
