Week 5: Winery

I went to Paso Robles over the weekend. This was at one of the last wineries we went to for a tasting and I was pleasantly surprised by the use and placement of this lamp.

It was in the middle of the day and this winery did not need this extra light because sun was flooding into the room from all four sides. But this light accented the painting so well. It pulls the focus of the painting to where the swirl of colorful smoke is centered. It also adds warmth and vibrancy to the red while keeping the blues cooler.

The shape of the lamp is really beautiful as well. The ellipsoidal shape is very artistic and uncommon in itself, so I really loved the placement of it being in front of this work of art.
