DARK KISSES





                                         12" x 16" oil on canvas


Happy Valentines Day!

 My husband's favorite chocolates!  Recently as  I wondered aloud what I would  I paint next, Frank, with his hand in the candy jar suggested, "Paint these".  The glass more than the sparkling purple and silver  jewels was appealing.  A delicious subject indeed and we are both pleased with this little painting.

    One of my favorite candy, also. Beautifully done, Rosemary. That glass had to be a challenge to paint. Great job.

      Pat, I think all of us favor Hershey's chocolate kisses! Your comments are appreciated. The glass was more difficult for me than the candy. Thanks!
