Cupcake #111 **sold**


What a lovely cupcake, chocolate, with a scoop of chocolate mint icing, topped with a mini Oreo cookie. You can see the light shimmering off the sugary chocolate, all that with a fresh clean blue background. The background takes me back to my box of crayola crayons, they had a "cornflower blue." Now I'd never seen a cornflower, but I loved this color, blue with a hint of purple. Blue and green sit next to each other on the color wheel, this makes them analogous colors. And both are beautiful with rich chocolate brown. Cheers!

Cupcake #77 **sold**


My eyes lit up when this one came down the studio stairs. The modeling of the little puff of whipped cream, the dusting of chocolate, it's just perfectly beautiful. I'm not so sure how lemon and chocolate would actually taste together, but it sure looks good! All surrounded by a simple clean blue background. If I were poking through a box of crayola crayons this would be closest to what they call cornflower blue. Clear crisp blue, leaning just a bit to the purple end of the spectrum. Enjoy!
