'Macaroon Study II' - 6" x 6" - oil on 1.5" gallery wrapped canvas - SOLDThe second of a study set of four, this one reminds me of childhood. I was big into color wheels, color charts and arranging my crayons like a rainbow all across the table when I'd do my 'work' as a kid. Had to revisit this when I bought all these macaroons. They looked so perfectly cute and festive stacked as they were.
After I started this series, I knew I had to do more, so I've also begun prepping several smaller 4"x4" hardboard panels that I'll use to explore these macaroons singly and in other arrangements. They are, for lack of a better word, addictive.
It's slow going though, getting new small study work painted. Been busy all summer working on paintings for several galleries and now for two group shows I'm hoping to take part in. I miss my little dailies, the satisfaction of their quick execution and completion, their simplicity and their fun. But, the gallery work at larger scale has been wonderfully challenging and immensely satisfying. Pro's and con's to everything, I guess.
