Cupcake #92 **sold**


For all of you who kinda like the sentiment of Valentine's day, but not all the pink and froth and fluff, we have a demure little cupcake! Perhaps for the man in your life? A simple chocolate cupcake surrounded by a warm mossy green. Greens can be quite bright and harsh, but add a little of their complementary color to the mix, (red) and they settle down into more natural tones quite quickly. Have a great day!

The little gingerbread man perched on this cupcake is certainly a snappy dresser! He is wearing analogous colors blue and green to match his pale turquoise background. A wintry themed cupcake that will look great all year. Enjoy, and come back often, I've peeked into the cupcake vault, and there are some beauties in there for this week!

Oh, you just can't go wrong with raspberries and cream. All dressed up in a pink paper cup. The pale green background was chosen because if you find this raspberry pink on the color wheel you'll find it lands somewhere between red and purple. Then shoot directly across and you find a spot somewhere between yellow and green, and we all know colors that sit opposite on the color wheel are complementary colors. Add a little white to lighten and freshen it up and you end up with this pretty celery green. Yum! Have a great day!

Today we have a simple, quiet, unassuming vanilla cupcake, on a fire engine red background. I have always loved straight up, no foolin' red. In fact as a girl, I had grand plans to have a red and white kitchen, complete with gingham curtains, when I "grew up." Fortunately that never happened, the growing up part that is, but I do have one bright red wall in my kitchen! This piece will make an eye catching contribution to any collection, or will be a great accent in any room that already has a touch, or a lot of red! Cheers!

A kiss on top makes everything good! A sweet little chocolate cupcake with a mound of vanilla icing, finished with a stripey Hershey's kiss. Surrounded by a warm terracotta red, this is a warm, yummy little piece, you can almost smell the chocolate! Browns, including this terracotta color, are all "tertiary colors." We all know the primary colors, red, yellow, and blue. The secondary colors are made by mixing two of the primaries, like red and yellow making orange. Tertiary colors take it one step further, adding the third primary, in this case a touch of blue moves orange into the browns. The tertiaries can be beautiful rich complex colors, or mud, depending on how you use and mix them, experiment with them on your palette!

A pretty little slice of strawberry tops today's cupcake. Mounds of pink cream on chocolate, surrounded by a minty green background gives this piece a nice fresh look. Pink and pale green are complementary colors, as they sit across from each other in the color wheel in their original forms of red and green. Adding white to a color creates a tint, and adding black creates a shade, and you'll find plenty of both in this piece.

With a nod to the holiday season, may we present a cranberry cupcake. With pink icing and little curls of grated white chocolate, I can tell you first hand how yummy this was! But there is something different about this piece, it seems to be floating in mid air!? No shadow to rest on, and the blue seems to get a little lighter at the bottom, did we forget something? Actually we've decided to do a "series within a series" if you will. This is the first "Floater." They'll all be floating on various sky colored backgrounds, from wintry grey, to sunrise peach. We'll do a new one from time to time, you may want to add a few of these to your collection, or you may want to start a new collection around these. I don't know about you, but these make me smile!

A sweet chocolate cupcake, a mound of mocha icing, and a bright red rose, all sitting on a sunny yellow background. What can I say, it's just a happy thing! Ready to brighten up a kitchen, or sweeten up that dull spot in the hall. It's sure to warm up a wintry day!

Now this is a stunning cupcake! We were at The Atlanta Cupcake Factory last week (shameless plug) when I saw this cupcake. "Oooh, do this one!" Scott said he didn't think he could, how do you paint red sugary glitter? But we bought it anyway, and a few days later he comes down the studio stairs with this. Wow, it's like Dorothy's ruby red slippers, and red candy apples rolled into one! All on an eggplant colored background, who would have thought a cupcake could be so dramatic? Cheers to the drama queens in our lives!

Wow, this is the first cupcake we've posted that is so, well, orange! Unashamedly orange, the color of those little tins of mandarin oranges. Actually, I think it is really quite pretty, and orange is the complementary color to blue, right color theory fans? This would look fabulous in a neutral setting, or on olive green, or if you have a kitchen like ours, simply full of color! This is one of those paintings that I will miss when it goes!

This little beauty came down the studio stairs, and all I could think was, mmm chocolate raspberry truffle! There is something perfectly magical about the flavor combination of chocolate and raspberry! This cupcake is surrounded by a deep coral color, showing off the raspberry prize! We are off to the big city today in search of new models, cupcake models that is! Have a great day!
