Hi Everyone,

| 'Candy Apple Red' original watercolor on paper copyright 2011 Carrie Waller BUY NOW |
Today I have a delightfully, delicious, subject:) I have been wanting to paint candy apples all Summer. Fall came speeding towards me and I thought, good I'll see if I can pick some up at the store to paint. Well, I was disappointed because they always have to ruin a good shiny apple with the addition of peanuts. So in the name of art I had to figure out how to make some. Steven was my Soux Chef. We made an entire batch of absolutely beautiful to look at but break your teeth off if you ate them candy apples. I photographed them ad nauseaum in every kind of light and configuration, decorated with them in my kitchen for a week and then deposited them in the garbage. Hope you like my 'Candy Apple Red'

Steven was in the swing of things and has 2 lovely artworks to contribute to our post. He is at the age now where he starting to get frustrated if he can't get his artworks to represent something instead of just throwing down his colors in an abstracted way. It is interesting to watch the journey of a young artist.
Have a great Monday, everyone.
See you Wednesday:)
Carrie
