These pastels and oil paintings were inspired by the clear blue skies of the Mojave Desert. These works are created just out of the enjoyment of
painting something that's hard to see. The transparency of the bottles distorts and reflects the light in interesting ways. Also, if you know what
type of bottle that roundish one is, please let me know. I let someone take photos where I live and he ran over it then drove off acting like he didn't.
I found that bottle so I don't know what was initially inside it.
