In the Spotlight

 

Painting donuts is a lot of fun! They come in so many varieties! I like to paint them leaning on blue Moroccan kitchen tiles. A bright pink donut covered with lots of multi-colored sprinkles on blue background! What can possibly make us happier while drinking a coffee cup in the morning? :)

The painting is 6x6x1.5' on gallery wrapped (deep profile) canvas. The sides are painted blue to harmonize!

Chocolate Dipped Strawberry

I've always wanted to paint a chocolate dipped strawberry, but never had a photo that inspired me. Recently, we had a new tiny store opened in our outlet mall, and their chocolate covered strawberries look so yummy! I bought some and took pictures. I love chocolate glaze with a hint of Alizarin in it!
At frist I made the background dark grey with lighter grey mottling on the sides, but then I changed it and made the sides black. I think it really pops the chocolate strawberry up!

The painting is made on 6x6x1.5', acrylic on gallery wrapped (deep profile) canvas.

Two Hot Chili Peppers

 

I started these two chili peppers a while ago, but was not quite happy with my choice of background. Originally, I thought to make it grey, but it looked too boring to me, so I changed it into green with some lighter green mottling. I really like the contrast! Painted on my favorite Ampersand gesso board! Acrylic on 5x7 inch archival board!

Halved Strawberry

 

My 13-year-old daughter loves fruit salad in the morning. I mix all sorts of fruit that I can find in my refrigerator. One morning I was cutting fruit, and I noticed that strawberries have a very cute heart-like shape inside. I carefully cut one with the stem and the still life composition was ready to paint!

 

Hope you enjoy this one!

Floating Donut

 

(commissioned painting)

 

This was a very interesting commission. The customer wanted to re-create a certain look in one of their kid's room. The kid loves chocolate donuts the best, can't blame him!:)

So I painted them a donut floating in the sky. 18x18', acrylic on stretched canvas.

"Donut Tea Party"

I really fell in love with painting donuts, and donuts with a steaming cup of tea got me very excited! :)

I definitely plan on painting steaming tea and coffee cups in the future! This painting is so bright and colorful, and I love the combination of jelly donuts with the red teacup! Somehow makes me feel very happy when I look at it! So hope you catch the mood! :)

I had a lot of fun painting these three crimini mushrooms! 5x7' acrylic on archival ampersand gesso board.

I've recorded a couple of videos for my upcoming youtube channel. They still need to be edited, but they are coming.... :) The first video is about how to paint an avocado. It will be a step-by-step video with detailed instructions. Later on, I decided to add a tomato to my avocado, as it seemed to be lonely :) I did not record the tomato part, but I am planning on making another video about the wet-into-wet technique for beginners, and thinking about making it all about tomato!

The second video is about painting a jelly filled donut with powdered sugar on top! :) Yum! I am going to announce when both videos come out! I am planning on making it so that people who watch the videos and paint with me are able to send me their creations for critique or any advice!

Here are the paintings so far! Both paintings are 8x8x0.5' acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas! The sides are finished in light blue!

Both will be available at my store here https://www.etsy.com/shop/MargosArtCreation?ref=hdr_shop_menu

As I promised, showing another avocado painting. This time, a little larger canvas. I added a little crack on the table surface to add some character. Thinking that one day I should share the process of how I create my paintings from start to finish in stages. Might be fun! Stay with me! :)
