This is my latest painting and it's one of my Most colorful and Candy filled. It shows a (young Willy Wonka) Wondering around his Chocolate Factory. Maybe it's before his Factory was closed to the public. There are many of the things that make the story and movie so much fun in this painting. The gummy bear tree, The lemon tea cups, giant toad stools made of marshmallows, M & M bushes, The giant chocolate waterfall in the back ground mixing the chocolate. There is of course Willy Wonka himself and that iconic hat. There is a lot of detail in this 14 X 11-inch Cradled Panel. I show a wonderfully clear tube in the background that is pulling chocolate out from the churning river. It's the same tube Augustus gets sucked into :) The beautifully see-through flowers, Gummy Bear Trees and chocolate water bring out such wonderful memories. I look at this painting (and many of my paintings) as a modern-day Disney Cartoon, With their big shiny eyes and happy feelings. I see that in this younger Willy Wonka perhaps before the world tainted him. Maybe this is painted high on the walls of Wonkas Factory as a mural of how things used to be before he shut it down to the public. Try looking at the lighting in this picture and experimenting with it. Neat little things and shines happen. I Hope you enjoy this newest painting, and all of the little details and lighting effects.
