Cake At The Bubble Room, 3 1/2 Strokes

Greetings,

Welcome to the Cooper studio. No painting today. But. If you are the person the real estate agent brought to look at my house this afternoon, I sure hope you thought it was sort of clean. I spent all day making it that way. Dios Mio.

Yesterday I found the last 3 1/2 brush strokes that were missing from the cake painting. Photo-ed this afternoon, and here for your viewing pleasure:

Cake At The Bubble Room, acrylic painting on canvas, measuring a perfect 24 x 24 inches. And if you are wondering about the Bubble Room, think Captiva Island, Florida. And it's coconut cake! Available in my portfolio.

And while we are talking tasty, I feel compelled to mention the top two bakeries in the state of Iowa. My opinion and I'm sticking to it. Spencer has the privilege of being home to Carroll's Bakery, right on Grand Avenue, and if you are driving through, you simply have to stop and go in. They make a pastry called (and I have absolutely no idea how to correctly spell it) (but to get my point across we'll do it this way) a buterday. At least that is how it's pronounced. If somebody knows the pastry and how to spell it, feel free to correct me. The perfection of the pastry, is however, UNarguable. And it's just a short Saturday morning bicycle ride away. :) The second most outstanding pastry in Iowa comes from the other end of the state, in Marion, Iowa, right next door to Cedar Rapids. Napoleons. Jules Bakery. Enough said except for mmmmmmmmmmm.

Wow. It must be dinner time.

Later, Cooper

Glad you finally put in the cake!! And it has the really buttery coconut cake look, too. I need tea and dessert.

Thanks for voting on the two paintings, and thank you also for the info about the group painting section, or whatever you called it. I did not know about that so I just got creative (get it? creative artist?). I will look at that and figure it out.

"Dumped" did take longer, but not very long,and I think it was worth it. It's not the speed, but the looseness I am striving for. Loose and accuracy is what I am striving for. I like that in your paintings as well. Roseann
