Sometimes other people's ideas just call out to me. This little watercolor in a notebook is a study for a larger painting I'm planning. The source photo comes from a blog called Different Strokes From Different Folks, so there will be lots of cupcake paintings around online. I suppose I could change this, make the paper liners different colors, add a patterned cloth, but I like the simplicity of this image. I also am grooving on the swirly frosting and the colored sprinkles.

Oh, these are adorable!
Love these, esp. the swirls and shadows
Hungry? Well I wasn't until I saw your picture! It's absolutely delicious! Looks just a little less machine-made than the reference photo -- maybe that's why...
Love your cupcakes!
Sometimes I forget to click on your pic to enlarge it. Seeing the detail is a delight. Whimsical!
Sherry, this is fabulous! The icing, and the paper wrappers, are really great!!
Nice job! A real challenge, but you make it look easy!
Well done !!
I did mine in a W/C notebook also.
