Corks

acrylic on canvas - 30 x 20 cms This is one of my early paintings when I was experimenting with painting textures and repetition of an object. It is simply painted and no materials were used for the texture.

my husbunds cousin saves all of his wine corks in a big basket. He likes to tell about the places he's traveled and the fun times he had.

Artist Reply: Thank you Betty. I had some fun drinking this lot! LOL! Regards. Cathy
