With Two Wine Glasses, I was interested in how a simple pairing could hold a quiet, neutral exchange of light. The glasses don’t interact through gesture or narrative — their dialogue happens through reflection and brushwork; through the way their forms catch and return the surrounding color. The background carries a rich impasto, and that textured surface became an active part of the painting, engaging with the reflections of the glass and giving the light something to grip. During this period, I was paying close attention to how form and color shift when the paint surface itself becomes more assertive. This piece sits squarely in that exploration — a still life where texture, reflection, and restraint create their own quiet tension.
