Chocolate Frosted, Chocolate Glazed and Glazed, 8x8 inch oil

SOLD
This is a commission that I just finished.  I love how it came out!  I was a little nervous, never having painted these kind of donuts with bites taken out.  Well, it's just like everything else - you just have to look at them.  And I am very, very fold of painting those styrofoam cups!  I have this new color - Ice Blue that really works for the white cup where it's in the light, but not reflecting the direct light.  I guess it's true - America Runs On Dunkin!
And I got this hat - I think it says it all...

    The painting is wonderful and so is the hat. Did you buy that when we were in Atlanta? I, too, love the Ice blue.

    Kelley this is so much fun and painted so very well. Glad you finally received that Shiva ice blue paint perfect on that "white" cup. Bites out of all the donunts reminiscent of Saturday mornings in Connecticut before the children's soccer games. And loving that hat...will have to see if they are sold at DD here.

    Kelley,
    This is the best! Love the triple threat with the bites taken out! Really good job on those. You are killing me with that chocolate frosting on the top one:) Yum!
    Love the styrofoam cup- just adds all the right stuff to the composition and the stack can lean on it!
    Sweet!!!

    Thanks, Jerry! I hope you are well. No, the hat came from Provincetown, MA last Fall!

    Thanks, Karen, they SHOULD sell those hats at Dunkin Donuts, but I found it in a gift shop!

    This actually makes me sad. You see, there is no Dunkin Donuts nearby...

    I love this painting! That hat is great, too! Awesome work!

    Awesome, Kelley! Who was the poor person making the extreme sacrifice of taking the bites out? ;-)

    No jelly Contessa?
    Delish' and oozing with frosting! What more can an opponent say? (other than I am in trouble)

    Hey, I need a hat too!

    Love it - especially the middle one. I can taste it! Beautiful job. And I love the way you handled your cup. Forget about DD selling the hats - they should be selling your paintings!

    You rule, Donut Queen! Love the cup and you're right that ice blue is perfect.

    Great job on these...as usual! I can't even begin to think about how hard it was to paint. You have that "cake" look down to perfection, esp. the chocolate one with the thin glaze! I'm surprised Dunkin Donuts hasn't commissioned you to do posters for their shops. Oh, if ONLY they knew you were including their cups in your paintings!(hint*hint)

    LOVE the cap!!!!!!!!!

    Hmmm ... I see hats, aprons, and lots of stuff plastered with your new motto, "Life is short, Eat the damn donut!".
    Love your painting ...
