White Candle, 2019-05-24 By Russell Spencer (RS2289) Acrylic on Canvas, 456 x 457 mm Contact Russell Look at large version Look at progress pictures I've spent my fair share of time staring at plain white candles. I'm interested in the shape of the flame and the different zones of colour and brightness. Also the colour of the candle at different points as the light shines down through the wax: bright white-orange at the top, then more dark orange in the middle, then purple-grey as the internal lighting runs out.
