Square oil painting depicting mostly full drinking glasses rippling with pastel pink, yellow, and dark blue. A central tall, cylindrical glass is flanked by a glass roughly three-fourth its height on our left and half its height on our right. A wine glass and other cylindrical glasses cluster behind. Even the reflective surface on which the glasses stand appears to ripple. White highlights emphasize the curve and continuous warping of the glasses.
