Lucky 7

Do you like backgammon? I do but rarely play these days. I need to get back to it. How about gin? I've only had it a couple of times but I wanted to explore the distortions that are created by square glass. You get seven when you add the dice. This painting is full of angles like the backgammon board. I learned so much about creating a reflective wood surface. It was very challenging to paint but I thoroughly enjoyed the process. Got a favorite game?
