This is an in progress oil painting I am working on. It is a trompe l'oeil painting, meaning a 'fool the eye'. A trompe l'oeil painting is supposed look tangible, deceiving the eye. That was my goal here. The key is only a piece of the actual painting which also includes a melting candle, gold candle stick, and a reflective antique metal plate. I submitted this piece as a part of a portfolio for a scholarship. Now that that deadlines past I still need to render the key a bit more and then finish the entire piece. Surprisingly I have really liked working on this project, with the exception that I can only do it during class times and at school on the weekends, but hey that's what I've got to give in order to have this composition achieved.
