Brass and Glass Wall Sconce

A still life scene entered into a “challenge” at Fine Art America with the theme of “A Touch of Glass.”

A stunning decorative metal lantern steals the spotlight, showcasing its intricate design and warm glow. This charming piece is crafted from brass and glass, elegantly cradling a large candle that flickers gently, casting a soft light throughout the space.

Next to the lantern, a tall, eye-catching orange ceramic vase adds a vibrant splash of color. Its smooth curves and glossy finish create a delightful contrast against the rustic texture of the white brick wall behind it.

The backdrop is further enhanced by panels of bold red and sunny yellow, infusing the scene with energy and warmth. This combination of elements creates a modern yet cozy ambiance that invites you to linger a little longer.

This lovely still life is just a small glimpse into the enchanting interior decor at Harpoon Hanna’s, a fabulous restaurant nestled in Fenwick Island, Delaware. The atmosphere here is nothing short of delightful, making it the perfect spot to enjoy good food and great company!

Do you buy your own art?

Yes, I buy my own fine art photographs.

I have actually heard that question a few times over the years and have even seen it posted on art forums every now and then. There is a story in here somewhere – maybe akin to “the cobbler’s children with no shoes” or the “lawyer dying with no will.”

Well, our home is certainly not like that. Here is recent addition to the living room wall at our beach home. Here are two new 36″x24″ canvas prints chosen from my selection of “beachy” scenes. They are on display above the couch and is a centerpiece of the room, opposite the stone fireplace.

The photograph on the left is of windblown surf and dunes near Fenwick Island State Park. The one on the right is a gorgeous sunset over Little Assawoman Bay. These can, of course, be purchased from the place I purchased them – from my online gallery at  BillSwartwoutPhotography.com.

We now have a total of five (5) prints on canvas in that side and two other in a smaller size. We also have four framed prints adorning walls in our dining room.
