I love the way things go nutty behind glass. In this one the lemon and cup appeared to be merging behind the jar, hence the title. A little silly, yes, but that's what occurred to me.
Someone asked me the other day about the medium I use to paint with. My medium recipe is maybe the one useful thing I got out of my college art classes. I mix 2 parts linseed oil : 1 part stand oil : and 1 part turp (or mineral spirits). I don't really measure these things (think of the cleanup!) but rather eyeball it. If I mix my medium pretty consistently with my paint, at least the top layer, I get a kind of sheen to the finished piece and then I don't have to varnish it. I hate varnish - it stinks.
