I picked up this electric tea kettle on ebay a while back, and took a bunch of photographs, but haven't got around to painting it until now. I've selected a few good compositions from that lot for larger paintings, but thought I'd debut it here on ebay as a six by six. As you can see the kettle has this great dome shape, perfect for reflecting its' surroundings. Plus it has a wonderful decoesque handle. I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. I think this is a good start, and I'm looking forward to painting it again on a larger scale down the line. If you'd like to bid on this piece, you can take part in the auction by clicking here.

Perfect little piece Neil! Quiet-elegant & dramatic. Enjoyed your skull too.
Neil - how come your reflection is not shown in the tea kettle?
Thanks Pierre, and to answer your question Mary, I place the camera on a tripod with the timer set, so I can exit the scene before the shutter trips.
Very beautiful painting, and so original... all those reflections are something to talk about for long... congratulations!
Best regards,
Carolina
