1976 - FIRST OIL PAINTING
“Metaphysical Bottles,” 1976, my first oil painting. Empty bottles sitting on a table. Two earlier paintings and the chair I built in woodworking class can be found in the background. The light in the large wine bottle is brighter than the light in the room realizing this I thought, “The
light in the mind is greater then the light in the room.” I was touching upon Metaphysics. In otherwords perception can transcend what we see with our eyes. Notice the signature block has an earlier style, S Shooster.
