Acrylic Painting - Bread, wine and cheese

Bread, wine and cheese used to be a regular meal at our house.  Easy, romantic, relaxing and yummy.  Unfortunately, with pregnancy, the birth of a baby, and trying to cut down on my cholesterol, we haven't had it in a long time.  Sad... :(
But when we were eating it regularly, it inspired a painting for my kitchen.  This one took a little more time, mostly waiting for parts to dry before painting the next step.  Also, didn't have some of the colors, so had to mix them - the browns and the orange and the grey, I had to mix them myself.  I'm actually rather proud of the way they turned out. 
I also originally tried to make clear wine glasses... um.. kind of difficult... so I changed them to blue glass which is fine because I absolutely love blue glass.  It's not the best lighting but it gives you the idea.

Who needs to buy art when you can make it yourself?

Acrylic Painting - My modern art set

So another hobby I do on occasion is painting with acrylics.  I like it but I haven't done it in a long time because I haven't been inspired with any ideas as of late.  My first real painting set I did was because I got sick of having a giant huge white wall in our living room.  So I made a set.  They are colorful and bright which met my purpose.  If you look closely, you can tell they are supposed to look like they are connected - like they are one actual painting.  I don't have a name for it... but it has been on our wall ever since brightening our room.  :)
