"Magic Gumballs"--Painting of Giant Gumball Machine

Magic Gumballs
12 x 6"
oil on 1/4" thick gessoed MDF board
Sold

  This giant gumball machine was standing outside at the fair. The natural sunlight brought out more fun on the colorful gumballs. I was watching the kids putting the quarters in the machine to get the color as they wished. It didn't happen all as they wanted. But in my situation, I can control what color I want of the gumballs in my painting.
