Beer

This is a quick and dirty edit of a potential still life image. I was happy with the composition of the bottles, but I had to added a few pixels on both sides of the images to correct the final format, and I took out the light source to the right as well. As with most images from which I base my paintings, the seamlessness of the reference image is not so important. The bad photoshopping doesn’t get transferred to the painting anyway.

Not that these beers are hard to come by, but I wanted to mention that I bought them at Galco’s Soda Pop Stop, known for their large selection of hard to find sodas, many made with sugar cane, as well as a healthy variety of beers—they also make sandwiches.
