Sweet

Here's the start of Sweet. This is one of a pair of paintings. My relationship to all things sugary is complicated.


Today I worked on the drapery, sugar cane and the spoon. It's a spoon that specially made for sugar, and the bowl is in the shape of a shell. It's only roughed in.



Among other things, this painting gives me the pleasure of painting silk drapery, for which I have a weakness.

More snow predicted tonight.
