Done But Not Forgotten

Food Fusion Fun (24 X 20 inches)  by Marian Dioguardi c2014

These fusion food paintings are fun to paint. They are also a LOT of work. It's time to step away from these time consuming works and pick up the pallet knife for somethings broader and faster.

My take away from this painting is that there is a drama in the black back ground. I'd like to explore that device more, on my own terms. Of course Dutch and Spanish still life painters have classically used this device. I like the tension of painting a contemporary and popular subject against such a deeply classical background.  Stay tuned.
