Peanut Butter and Jelly

Peanut Butter and Jelly, 30 x 40, oil on linen

Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches are among my top three favorite foods (the other 2 are ice cream and pizza)

Not only are these sandwiches delicious, they are also beautiful. The texture of the bread, the smoothness of the peanut butter and the shine and luminosity of the jelly all combine to create a feast for the eyes.

Monopoly Game by K Henderson

Monopoly Game, 12 x 9, oil on cradled board

I often like the box the game comes in better than the game itself. The instructions in this box are dated 1951.

I included the red dice because I like the way the light shines through. And I've always been fascinated by the detail in the little shoe.

Which is your favorite Monopoly playing piece?

Games - Work in Progress

Games, Work in Progress, 12 x 24

This is just a small bit of the tromp l'oeil oil painting I'm currently working on. I'm having so much fun with it, I couldn't wait to show it to you.

As you probably know, I'm addicted to vintage toys and thrift stores. As I was whining to Hubby one day about all the tape they use in thrift stores and how it ruins the boxes he said "Why not paint the tape too?" Duh! I paint tape all the time in my tromp l'oeils and here it's already been added to this Rook card game.

Work in Progress - Super Powers

Super Powers, work in progress,detail, 20 x 16, oil on cradled board

It has been ages since I posted a new contemporary still life painting! But it's not because I haven't been in the studio working.

One of the pieces I have been working on is this trompe l'oeil. This is just the center detail of the painting. It's another in my Super Heros series. I'll tell you the story behind it when I post the finished painting. In the mean time, take a look and tell me what you think.
