Portrait of my stove

Last Friday afternoon, I made a “trifle” as the end of a busy week: Portrait of my stove. To wind down, so to say. The stove, the globe and my wife’s slippers.

Also I was triggered by the colour contrast of the stove window and the globe in the back ground.

Portrait of my stoveI was interested in the light plane below the stove, which basically indicated the volume of that form. Despite the stove was black, I had no my black on my palette. The darkest value I made out of transparent oxide red, veridian green and ultramarine blue.

Clean the glass of the stove

Talking about the stove, I show you an old trick how to clean the glass of the door. No chemicals! I take a damp cloth and use the ashes from the stove as an abrasive. In a few seconds the glass is clean!
