cheez-its 6x6
Cheez-its are one of the few foods that are actually brighter than it's packaging. This painting is available through my new gallery, Kasini House.

I was reflecting on your recent run of junk food subjects. When a hunter kills prey and leaves it in the field, we call it wasteful and even immoral because their purpose is clearly bloodsport, not food acquisition.... Do you eat your food models?
Pollyanna, Sometimes I eat them and sometimes someone else in my household eats them. There are cases, though , where they do not get eaten. The snoballs were just too weird. Thanks for looking Jared and Denyse! Cheez-its are very common in this part of the U.S.. They are more commonly sold in a large, multi-serving box.

I am an artist living in Northern California. In 1993 I graduated from
U.C. Davis where I took classes from Wayne Thiebaud, Dave Hollowell and Roy DeForest. I currently teach high school art in Placer County California. On this blog I have posted 1000 paintings in as many days. I took a break from that strict schedule for a couple of years but since the beginning of 2014 I have been completing one small painting on a daily basis. The practice of completing a painting a day suits my disposition and aesthetic. I have also found that modeling this sort of daily practice for my students is important. I am making these paintings available on ebay. Thanks for stopping by and check back often if you like what you see.

Never heard of these, must be an American thing.
Pollyanna,
