"What is this stuff?" 6"x6" oil on gessoboard


Sold
Sprightly was in a daze wondering around looking for more delicious cheese.  "What is this stuff?  The giant sure spends a lot of time with these things.  Maybe it is something to eat?"   But when he smelled it he just couldn't figure out why anyone would to have anything to do with this stinky stuff.

 For the first half of the painting I wondered why I chose these objects, but in the end I think it might be one of my favorites!    I have struggled every time to get the bronze coloring right.  Of course it looks different when using different lighting and with different colors surrounding.
