Flowers with Orange Stripes

See this painting on my online gallery--$55, click here.

I was showing a friend of mine the various Challenges on the Daily Paintworks page, 

and we saw this great challenge for stripes, 

so I LOVE ORANGE and couldn't wait to give it a go.  

I hope you will love it too.  Besides the flower petals are very dramatic, don't you think?  

And that sliver of light!

Necco Wafers, 6x6"

Remember Necco Wafers?  

Here is some information about how and why I decided to paint this kind of candy.  I tried to perk up the image with a colorful cascade of stripes because the candy and the packaging of these Necco Wafers is very light, the candy has a delightful sugar haze on each piece and the package is wax paper-like. This is a very old-fashioned candy which I used to get from my grandfather when I was a child. The manufacturer was located in Cambridge near Boston, Massachusetts. I guess I was in a crazy colorful mood when I chose to paint it this way.

I haven't posted in a long time and I'm going through the motions now by posting this small gem, candy bar painting.  When I painted this, it took time to arrange the design.  The questions were, "how do I present it, how do I tear the wrapper and still retain the name in a readable way.  What color background looks good with chocolate brown?"  Let me know what you think. :)
