Shiny Things 

Scott Fraser's "Shiny Things" is a still life painting featuring a vintage kitchen scale balanced precariously with a single large object wrapped in foil on one side and a cluster of smaller foil-wrapped objects on the other. The painting's use of realistic detail and the juxtaposition of the two objects evokes questions about value, weight, and perception. Fraser, known for his meticulous realism, highlights the shiny surfaces of the objects, drawing the viewer's eye to the play of light and shadow. This piece is typical of Fraser's works, which often feature ordinary objects imbued with a sense of mystery and intrigue.
