🌳🌕 Bottles of Joy 🌕🌳

Acrylic, pastel, pencil, paper on canvas | 16" x 20" (40.6 x 50.8 cm) | 2016

Like a fine fromage, this work has aged for a decade and is ready to be tasted with the eyes. A little classic still life Des Islets incorporates the verve of independent thought.

This work is in my personal #collection 🌞
