Delish

Several times a year I get a craving, a specifically-decadent craving to paint chocolates.  Once I discovered the correct colours to squeeze it was merely a matter of finding chocolates to pose for me. I don't eat the stuff, but I do like how it looks. So as subject matter, it can sit here in my studio for weeks without a single nibble. 

I drew this two months ago, but didn't get to the painting part until today... while listening to Schubert, and an entire opera from the Met.

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.


Thank you for visiting here today.
