Title
Reflections in glass and steel a still life
Artist
Mukta Gupta
Medium
Drawing - Conte Pencil On Fine Drawing Paper
Description
This drawing was done by using conte pencils (3) on a large piece of drawing paper to capture the reflections seen in piece of glass and stainless steel bottle and it surprised me as well to see how much one can show with just three color pencils. It was really hard for me to work with the conte' pencil in the beginning like every new medium, but once I got hold of it, I loved it for what I could do with it.
First I could not find a deeper meaning to this piece because it is just a still life... However, it suddenly dawned on me on reflection that of course, reflection in itself is deep, it has two meanings now for the time being unless I stumble upon more ... so I am happy!

The reflections pull you right in. It is as if you have a bullseye in the scene and it won't allow you to leave it for long. Beautifully rendered. f/v

Mukta, so sorry I typed Mike. Kind of funny, but not very graceful. I am looking at much more of your paintings and enjoying every minute.
