I've painted these candies before, but I really feel that doing the same subject a few times makes you 'know' it better. Once agin, my Dad's birthday reminded me of these, as he always had a few tucked in every jacket pocket. I miss him very much, and hope that somehow he sees and enjoys this painting!
I'm off for a week of painting on the Cape - lucky me - but I'll share what I do, probably by Wednesday I'll have some studies and plein air pieces to share.
Kelley, This one is is really nice! I love the colors, and the orange background peeking through!
ReplyDeleteGreat composition too!
Very sweet. Know your father sees and loves this!! I quite like the lavender background with the mint green. Have fun painting on the Cape!!
ReplyDeleteHappy trails Jelly Queen! (I'm leaving for a long weekend too, to paint pastries -oh, la, la! - in Albuquerque.) Can't wait to see your plain air studies.
ReplyDeleteLove the candy!
I love the brushwork on these. I hope you have a great week of painting!
