The Other Side

"The Other Side"

Oil on canvas panel
After the box has been open for a day or so, the delight is more in the sight of the morsels, not so much about the scent. Hey, that may be the sign to open a new box! 


This is actually the opposite side of the first white one I painted.  Um... it no longer exists.  But let me tell you what was inside—a milk chocolate shell under the white, with a luscious caramel filling in the hollow.

Sweets for Milady

"Sweets for Milady"

Oil on hardboard
The velvet pouch at my place setting was cinched with a satin ribbon and tied in a bow. I knew who had placed it there before I gathered my petticoats and flounced them over the bustle chair. 


I got chocolates for Valentine's Day—an abundance.  They beg to be painted, so here is the first in a series of the various shapes and colors of the goodies.

Thank you for sauntering by today.

Candy! Hearts!

"Candy! Hearts!"
16" x 20"
Oil on wrapped canvas
Judy loves candy as much as she loves hearts.  So when I stacked her heart-shaped containers behind my heart-shaped candy dish filled with chocolates she giggled.  Now Judy loves me, too!

This composition was a bit tricky to stage because I set it up on polar fleece! The items kept sliding.  AND it was just as hard to execute. The whites had so much reflected color to capture. And the only real white was in the highlights.  So many reflections!
