Comments
This is probably the best still life I've done to date, including the very few paintings I've completed. What I really love about it is that reflection in the cup; I didn't even know that reflection was there until after I had finished this drawing. I was just trying to map out the highlights and the shadows and somehow I came up with that reflection.
