This is the second painting I’m doing of this same scene. A kid on a bench during the Peach Festival not too far away from where I live in Michigan in a town called Romeo (the same town from where Kid Rock is from) a very hot afternoon helping mom sell peach pies for $10 along with many other home made goodies during the Peach Festival. Next to him there was the white tent where the rest of the pies where being offered for sale by mom and dad. The kid had some on the bench with him in the white box just for the cars that would stop to buy a pie without having to actually leave the car, how clever! The entire scene was really interesting, a moment captured in a snap literally speaking, but what I really like about this painting is the game of light and really dark areas and how the street reflects on the window just behind the kid. A very interesting piece to revisit. To bid just click on the link above.

Este es el segundo cuadro que hago de la misma escena. Un chico en una banca durante el Festival de Melocotones no muy lejos de donde vivo en Michigan en un pueblo llamado Romeo (el mismo pueblo de donde Kid Rock es) una tarde super caliente, ayudando a mamá a vender tartas de melocotón for $10 junto a otros productos caseros durante el festival de melocotones. Cerca del él estaba la tienda de lona blanca donde el resto de las tartas eran ofrecidas a la venta por mamá y papá. El niño tenia los pies en la caja blanca al lado de el para que los coches que pararan pudiesen comprar una tarta sin necesidad de bajarse del coche, ingenioso! La escena completa es interesante, un momento capturado en un instante literalmente, pero lo que realmente the este cuadro es el juego de luz y sombras oscuras y como la calle se refleja en la ventana justo detrás del niño. Una pieza realmente interesante para revisar.
