This is an original oil painting of some (maybe most, but not all) of Belgium's great breweries. This painting includes crowns (and cork and cage tops) from Rochefort, Rodenbach, d'Achouffe, Saison Dupont, Westvleteren, Gulden Draak, St. Bernardus, Westmalle, Chimay, Orval, Duvel, and De Struise. Okay, we'll admit - De Struise has blank crowns and we had to make a fake one, but we feel they are too goddamn good to not include. "But why did you not include Fantome, then?" We don't know, we're sorry. In any case, we're very happy with how this painting came out. Much like the painting of California caps that we did, this one is more painterly than our regular work.

As with our other beer art, this painting is on a hand-built canvas and ships with a varnished surface and a hanging wire on the back.

About our oil paintings:
While these larger-than-life oil paintings approach photorealism, we feel that they possess a physicality that a photo simply does not. The transparent, permeable layers of color work in conjunction with impermeable, visceral strokes of paint to create a light-reactive, dimensional surface.

"Because the objects of a still life are ordinary -- a sausage, a melon, a bowl, a boot -- their translation into paint intensifies them. They are dignified by the metamorphosis we call art." - Siri Hustvedt - "Mysteries of the Rectangle"
