Wayne Thiebaud

(check it out)

We went to the Pasadena Museum of California Art today.
Wayne Thiebaud (Tee-bow) was the main reason we went.
This picture above doesn't do him justice.
He paints a lot of bakery type items, delicatessens, and also great landscapes.
His use of color is fabulous especially in the shadows and his use of thick paint goes right along with his subject matter. It's as if it was frosting instead of paint on the canvas.
Got a little culture today.
