The First in a List of Things I Will Never Paint Again!


"Popcorn"

4 x 4

Stretched Canvas

I thought it would be a lot of fun to paint a few kernels of popcorn, so yesterday I popped a bagful of Lime & Salt (yum! my favorite!) and threw a few on my table to photograph.  I also used an old movie ticket to complete the vignette.   Fun does not quite describe the experience I had painting these things.  Plus the table was wood, but reflective, so I had to deal with a reflection of each kernel as well as painting the kernel itself.  They say whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, but this just made me frustrated!  At least I scored a bag of popcorn in the process....I should've ordered extra butter, though...I deserve it!!
