Still Life with Syringe

I really like this still life painting by Bill Sharp: something about the way the paint is loosely applied and the inclusion of a syringe and medicine bottle that communicates something other than the surface details; it has a dream like / hallucinatory feel to it that contrasts nicely with the clinical/sterile content.

It was pointed out to me that this image could be interpreted to mean that I might not be doing so great. There is no cause for alarm.

The syringe is one that my wife used to measure some of her medications. I always thought it would make an interesting still life object and dropped it into this setup.
