Technically, it's still food.

It's one of those days where I walk around going,"What should I paint next?" I have been working on a rather large piece full of crazy details, narrative and complex composition, but now it was time to do a Daily Painting and I had to find something that retained my interest as much as the biggie. I didn't want to break out another food group and I was running out of time. I was going through our pantry and noticed some cans and voila! Honestly speaking, I did borrow this composition from another artist, but frankly, I couldn't help myself. The metal, the translucent paper, the reflections, the dancing, diffusing shadows...it's full of great elements! All in all though, this is really a piece meant for a larger canvas, actually a smooth gessoboard would be best. Regardless, I had fun and the end result is a looser than I typically paint, it almost has the feel of a different artist.
