I would have loved to have done something more funky and interesting, but didn't have a model available. So I tried doing something funky for dandelion wine.

Since the wine making was an important part of the story, I wanted a wine bottle. I also wanted a wine glass, but that turned out to be beyond me. I can't create still lifes with 5 things. It has to be three or less. :)

It may not be funky for most, but it was out of my comfort zone, extremely frustrating, and a lot of fun. (after it was over, and I didn't have to be frustrated anymore!!)


Thanks for the wonderful comments!

whoa... 5th? Huge surprise! Thanks, all!

I had a Dandelion Wine possible but like this way better. The yellow tones over all are very pleasing as is the soft glow on the bottle. Voted earlier 8
