Kimberly Souza - 10, Acrylic painting on canvas, Candy Still-life.

My favorite part about this piece is the contrasting colors between the candies and the orange background and shadows. The shadows are really interesting because the light cast them in different directions which challenged me. Overall this project took me a while but it has come a long way from a piece of canvas to the product it is now.
