How excited I am that now I have found a new series to paint. French pastries. I love to look at these min edible sculptures but not to eat them. I love the bright colors and the shapes. To see these in rows in a boulangerie is just to die for.
I look at them and imagine them melting in my mouth. The taste of sugar attacking my tastebuds and coating my tongue. The contrasting colours melting into a grey blob in my stomach. And then bleh I am turned off. Give me bitter black chocolate but none of these highly decorative pastries. Painting them is a different story.
Obviously Wayne Theibaud has influnced me

Thank god the picture's cut off - the one you posted on the group blog made me so hungry. So is this photo okay or do you need some intervention?
Hi Kim,
I have to downsize it. I'm trying to get my new website up so you can drool over all the paintings.
