Strawberry Shortcake

6" x 8"
Oil on Hardboard

I did this painting a couple of weeks ago as a part of my "stacked" series, but didn't post it because I had planned on fixing a few details. Today, I decided that I was not going to fret over the little things and be happy with the "big picture" - so here it is . This past weekend, my family and I were in a terrible car accident. I am happy to report that we all walked away with minor injuries. So what better way to celebrate life, than with dessert. Enjoy!
I will be donating 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this painting to "The Help the Children of Africa Challenge". Daily Paintworks has organized this fundraiser to help the children starving in the Horn of Africa due to the devastating drought.

This is my entry for the DPW's "The Balance Challenge", posted by Cathleen Rehfeld. The challenge was to create a stack of something that is balanced - literally, and in color, composition, negative/positive space.  I thought of several things I could stack for an interesting painting, but settled on the pillow idea. Hmmm, looks like this could potentially be a series......
