There's a little something in this painting
that should not be there.
Can you find it?
I had such fun painting it that I did this
intentionally so you could join in the fun too!

Lepape Wine Master
This was such a fun painting.
As soon as I thought of it I sketched it out
and painted it. Just thinking about it made me laugh.
A lot of nice glazes and details but hard to see with
my photography.
Enjoy!

Georges Lepape: Studied at the Ecole des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, and the ateliers of Humbert and Cormon. In 1911 illustrated Les Choses de Paul Poiret and the following year programmes for the Ballet Russe . Innumerable magazines covers and fashion plates for La Gazette du Bon Ton and Vogue.
In 1911, Poiret again published a brochure of his designs, this time created by another young artist, Georges Lepape, who had been trained in the atelier run by Fernand Cormon, where Toulouse-Lautrec, Van Gogh, Sérusier, Matisse, and Picabia had all studied. Les Choses de Paul Poiret, vues par Georges Lepape appeared in a larger edition: one thousand copies were printed (Paris: 1911). Lepape, too, had absorbed the lessons of bright color taught by the Ballet Russes, and his pochoir prints of Poiret's still high-waisted fashions in this brochure and later in the Gazette du Bon Ton used line drawings with large areas of blues, greens, reds, pinks, and yellows.

Love your art. The years "1887-1971" aren't mirrored in your painting, like the rest of the bottle including "Lepage" on the neck, but are rotated. Very cool. :)

I Had many emails about this painting with guesses.
ReplyDeleteOnly 2 viewers including you Mark guessed it. Many seemed to think there may be faces hidden in the wine glasses.
I am happy you like my work and thanks for joining in.
