I put this piece away for a week, then returned to it to make some changes. I brushed out the lemon and started it over, with much happier results. I also corrected the rim of the bowl, although there seems to be a bit of a "twist" to this photo. The colors are more true, however, as I took more care with the lighting.
I am endlessly fascinated with the play of light on and through glass (and water). Expect to see more pieces along these lines, with interesting refractions and distortions. I'm seeking an abstract feel with very realistic representations.
