Wine and Beer - Two Works in Progress

These are the remaining two sketches that I started in the Still Life class at KAGS earlier this month (see post on 24 January 2019).

This one was of the display featuring the wine bottles and various wine glasses.

We had five different types of wine glasses, a couple of smaller cut crystal glasses, two long stemmed tulip glasses, one of which was tinted blue and a tall Champagne flute.

Ginger ale was put into a couple of the glasses to imitate sparkling wine.

Wine

There were two bottles of Vidal Icewine one from Jackson-Triggs and the other from Reif Estate Winery to complete the wine display.

The last grouping features beer.

The beer mug was filled part way with a cola to imitate beer, but of course it was not the right colour.

There was an O'Keefe's beer chalice and an Old Vienna stange glass.















Beer

There was a bottle of Budweiser and another of Barking Squirrel set in behind one of the glasses and at the base of the beer bottles there was a lemon and a lime to add colour to the display.

I will post each of these two drawings at a later date as more work on them is completed.

Thank you for looking at my artwork.

Baileys and Spirits - Two Works in Progress

Today I was at KAGS for the Still Life class in the morning and sitting the Gallery in the afternoon.

The theme for the class was "Things Found in a Bar".

We had four different displays, with the first one featuring a bottle of Baileys Original Irish Cream and two glasses for Irish Coffee.

The second display featured various spirits and had a bottle of Disaronno with a matching glass, which we partially filled with Pepsi to imitate having liquor in the glass. But the colour didn't match the colour of the alcohol.

Baileys

There was a bottle of Speyside 12 year old single malt Scotch Whisky together with a couple of shot glasses, a tumblers and a pair of Highball glasses.

There were lemons and limes scattered around the bottles and glasses.















Spirits

I will post these two drawings at a later date as more work on them is completed.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and look at the artwork.
