Thank you for another great class, Will! I really enjoyed the variety in this painting. Not feeling pressured to blend the background all at once made it much easier for me to work. I still struggle with large wet-on-wet areas, so this process was a welcome change. Following Kris’s suggestion, I added some salt for that little extra sparkle. I think I still tend to go too light with my colors; I could have made some of the shadows a bit darker. 

I'm not sure the reflections in the cup look like reflections because when I showed my husband the finished painting, he couldn't tell what they were. When I explained it to him, he said it made sense! LOL…Overall, it was a fun painting to create.
