Strada Challenge: Wine Glass

🥂 Paint light, liquid, and glass with clarity. In this 1+ hour silent demo, Bryan Mark Taylor challenges you to render a wine glass—with reflections, transparency, and liquid inside—guiding you through every subtle shift in value and edge.

You’ll learn how to:
✨ Observe and paint transparency and refracted forms
đź’ˇ Capture reflections and glints of light on curved glass surfaces
🎯 Use value control and edge finesse to separate layers (glass, liquid, background)
🔄 Recreate the piece easily using everyday glassware and materials


Ideal for artists wanting to refine their technique with challenging materials—glass and liquid are often revealing teachers. 🕒 Runtime: 1+ hours (silent, paint-along format)
