Wow man, that's so impressive. Everything seems to have a certain texture to it. Crytal ball looks like it has a scratch on it. :P

Hello what we got here then Mr De Graaf? bit out of the ordinary but me likes.

top work mate very different feel compared to your other works in terms of colour relationship and for obvious reasons. Really like this and the title is great dont change it or keep it similar to do with the veermer / dutch flemish refference as it works well with the content, and you being of dutch origin also keeps in fitting.

was all the lighting done with candle for this image ? or was there some elecrical lighting to assist? just wondered as it has that orange kind of earthy glow that old masters paintings have from the use of candle light. this going to be a series ?

Why thank you Mr. Hennessey. I was just kind of experimenting, wondering how photos lit purely by candle would turn out, and if they could be used for a painting. So I decided to try a bit of Old Dutch/Hyperrealism fusion! Could become a mini-series of maybe 2 or 3..we'll see.

Masterful still life!! Love the perfection of the lighting and depth of colors, the "master's work" on the horizontal surface is a nice touch! Outstanding.
