Cupcake #341 **sold**


Well here we are, starting off the New Year with lots of fresh fruit, vitamin C, antioxidants and all that stuff! Not to mention a splash of complementary colors in the form of orange and blue. Now close your eyes and imagine the orange and cream cheese frosting, and those little bits of candied orange peel, yum!

Cupcake #308 **sold**


A delicious study in complementary colors! Yellow and violet sit across from each other on the color wheel, therefore they are opposites, or complementary. Yellow is a good choice to neutralise violet, and violet will neutralise yellow. Good to know if you are trying to mix anything between a warm gold to a plum. Come back tomorrow to see what Scott is working on today!

Cupcake #241 **sold**


Cupcake #241 is a good example of complementary colors, yellow and purple sit across form each other on the color wheel and therefore are opposites. But this makes them sing when placed side by side. The background is a pale lilac, the frosting a pale lemon yellow, topped with a white and yellow flower. Simply yummy.

Cupcake #178 **sold**


Mmmm, a strawberry-lime cupcake, in those pretty sorbet fresh colors. Topped with a pair of strawberries, this little sweetie is sure to make your mouth water! And we know that red and green are complementary colors, but when they are made into tints by adding white, they still are complementary, even though they are now peach and mint!

Cupcake #164 **sold**


We had the great cupcake debate last night, is this cupcake even possible? Would anyone pipe these little beehive shaped mounds of icing? This one is clearly from Scott's imagination. Even if it's not possible in the real world, it looks good on paper, or canvas as is the case! Topped with tiny little wild strawberries, this one will add a little funk to any collection!
