Not Mondrian's Glasses & Pen

For the current artist challenge (ac-andrekertesz). It looks so simple but then one starts noticing all the details...not lined up just right so the angles aren't the same or nearly as effective...and how did he do that lighting? And, really, where in heaven's name did he have the camera? Etc, etc. This is a loose imitation of "Mondrian's Glasses and Pipe" which can be seen here https://www.artic.edu/artworks/50157/mondrian-s-glasses-and-pipe

I think you did a very nice job and I love your selection of tone. I think it softens the image more than the artists version and I like it better.

I think you did well with challenge. It's those pesky details that can be so frustrating.

[Catriona Baker]

I think you have done a very good interpretation. I suppose that’s what’s sooo good about the artist challenge it makes you really think about the final image and how to get there.

Nailed it!!

Nice still life

Neat still life and lighting

[Helen Jane]

you lined all these up pretty accurately I think. Not many pairs of glasses around today that would match the ones he used. As for the lighting, well your shadow on the bowl is pretty accurate. Great effort.

Ooh~Nice clean shot. Not familiar with the challenge but I believe you’re spot on.

@shutterbug49 You are way too kind; glad you liked this even better than the original. I am duly flattered.

@helenhall thanks for your comment on my Not Mondrian's glasses; you are so thoughtful. The lining up could have been better...the little bowl ought to have been directly down from the point at top. And thank goodness for $store readers!!!
