FOOD DANCE - ARTICHOKE

6x6 Oil on Panel
I know this was officially painted in 2013, but it is also the inspiration for my Food Dance Series.  I felt I could not leave it out.  Each painting in this series will be painted on a 6x6 panel and can be purchased for $100.00.

This painting is also the first in Leslie Saeta's 30 paintings in 30 days challenge.  To see more art from the challenge click here.  Enjoy!

 I know I've been wishing everyone a Happy New Year for the past two days, but hey, it's fun and one more won't hurt!! So .....
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
2014 is going to be a fantastic year!

    Happy New Year to you Linda. I hopped over from 30/30 and gosh, I find it so difficult to get the right green. You nailed it! Wonderful artichoke. I hope it is as delicious as it looks.

      Thank you, Susan! After I painted the artichoke I allowed it to dry. It is now sitting on a shelf in my studio.
