"No Sugar" redo


Okay, I came back to this post (June 19th) and uploaded the finished version. Just a bit more collage added to keep it from being so isolated.

The interior of the cup was really really bothering me...not painted convincingly enough for one thing, also I just couldn't keep my collaging hands off of it! Comments anyone? Should I have left the ocean out of my teacup?

I was thinking, "I love the collage in the cup" before I read what you wrote. I think it looks great - and like this kind of collaging. It even seems to recede more than the original.

Laura--thank you! I just saw a lot of your wonderful new projects on Flickr and am amazed, You have so much creative energy. I really want to do a turtle.

i like the collage, it gives the still life a little more interest and looks intentional.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I will probably put a little more paper in the lemon or shadow in order to integrate the use of collage better. I have so much unfinished work and here I am on the computer, ha!
