Not a Mac

I love painting food! 
 You know when a painting is done, when it makes you Hungry!
 This painting was a surprise because the background took as long to paint as the hamburger!  I wanted a dark neutral background to off set the color of the warm bun.   Many tries and combinations late I arrived at the color I wanted.
Sorry about the glare, but as always it is late in the day and I have to photograph under lights.

  2. Yummy! You did a fantastic job. I have been wanting to paint one of these too. Now that I have seen yours I'm not sure I will do it justice, like you have.

  4. Donna Tucker,
    Thanks! Go for it, and paint something fun that really appeals to you!
    I learned more about color with this painting, trying to mix-up a compliment but cooled down background color.

  5. Cathy Engberg,
    Thank You!
    I painted this looking at my I-pad. For the final painting I turn the I-pad OFF and just paint. The colors aren't realistic but give a better look than the photo.
