First acrylic painting

I bought some acrylic paints last week and this is the first painting I've done with them. It's for the silent art auction at Isaac's Way Restaurant downtown on Carleton Street. Their set-up is more condusive to artwork that doesn't need to be framed - which is why I turned to acrylics. 50% of the proceeds from the silent auction go to charity. I believe the proceeds from the upcoming exhibition will go to send underprivileged children to summer camp with Theatre New Brunswick.
Neon Glassware, 2009 acrylic on canvas, 16x20 inches, available at Isaac's Way Restaurant from Feb. 15th.

Thanks Jill :)

It's a little brighter and more intense in real life. Erick likes it as well... it's different and colourful.
