Cupcake #356 **sold**


Scott brought this little number down the studio stairs telling me all about it, "It's an ice cream cupcake, you cut off the top and put a scoop of ice cream inside!" Scott is an ice cream junkie, so I'm sure he was devouring this in his imagination! A little hot fudge on top, and you have pure heaven. The brick red background is a little bit on the neutral side and will look great with other earth tones. Have a great day!

Luscious lemon, piled high and sprinkled with a bit of pink sugar. Sitting on a pale blue background. The use of pink yellow and blue makes this a primary triad, as the colors are all tints of the three primary colors. Using a triad, being three colors that are equal distance from each other on the color wheel gives this piece a good sense of balance. It works with purple, orange, and green too, try it!

You just have to take a look out your window to understand the inspiration for this cupcake. Great billowing clouds of bright golden yellow contrasting with deep burnt reds, soft beige, and flecks of fiery orange surround our house right now, simply stunning. Now close your eyes and think of the flavor of pumpkin pie. A big story, for one little cupcake, enjoy!

What can I say about a banana cupcake? Bananas are the comedians of fruit, there's the never ending slip on a banana peel, and who hasn't shot someone with a banana "gun?" But this simple banana cupcake, piled with the fruit and cream seems to hardly entice a giggle. Even though it's surrounded by a beautiful banana yellow! So here's a treat for the banana lovers, or even the lovers of bright yellow, have a great day!

Here's your double cherry cupcake to close out the week! The background is almost coral, a bright combination of pink and orange to make the deep purple red of the cherries pop. I love the reflections on the cherries, and all the colors hidden in them. Enjoy your weekend, and we'll see you Monday!

It's amazing how a little fancy icing can turn a little lemon cupcake into something resembling the Taj Mahal! Surrounded by a soft lavender to complement the yellow, this little piece is sure to brighten someones day! Cheers!
