Through glass vessels—a vintage jar, a familiar salad dressing bottle, and a wine bottle—I explore how ordinary objects can hold fragments of time and memory. These reflective glass forms capture the subtle details of daily life, set against a vibrant, semi-abstract background that adds energy and depth.

The painting is built on contrasts. Simple, strong shapes outlined with defined lines sit alongside a cool, calming palette of blues, accented by the warmth of cream, orange, and violet in the background’s intricate patterning. Varied brushwork brings texture and a sense of immediacy, giving the piece a feeling of freshness and life.

This artwork invites viewers to consider how memories are stored and reflected in our perception of everyday objects. It’s a meditation on how the ordinary can become extraordinary when we pause to recognize its connection to time and shared experience. See less
