Artist Statement
“As an artist, I am fascinated with reflections. I love painting still water with the reflecting sky while I also find portraits with mirrors symbolic. Th intent of this painting was to create something fascinating, yet simple, with different items projected in daylight. Th idea to place things on a mirror was extremely tempting and it proved to look intriguing with the window to outside practically reflected right on a table, underneath the copper and brass teapot, decorative plate, vases, and sprinkles of anise.”
