Bishop Shiraz by Ben Glaetzer is a fine wine from South Australia. I couldn't help but want to paint this after sharing some at a family gathering. I ended up buying new glassware just for the painting because I knew that it would be a painting that was quite special. Glazed in the tradition of the Dutch masters, I also sanded lightly after the first three glazes and so the surface of the painting is quite smooth.

Artwork Description
Artist Bio
I have always loved art from my earliest understanding of it. I started painting at the age of six and rarely stopped. I was influenced early with realism and have tried to replicate life as closely as possible. I love all subjects and I guess that's why I don't paint just a single topic like aviation, marine, wildlife or still life. I try and immerse myself with reflections and creating form using light. I also love painting things that nature has taken a nice chunk out of.
I enjoy the works of Frans Halsβ as well as the modern masters such as John Seerey-Lesterβ Salvador Dali, Banksy and lately Tjalf Spaarnay and Luigi Benedicenti who are hyperrealist artists.
My work can be found in collections in Australia and worldwide.
I am deeply grateful for any likes you may care to give.
