You Cannot Change Your Answers - Cheddar
This is Cheddar. I painted it for Tony Lauro. It is the second painting in the "You Cannot Change Your Answers" series. There is an etched imprint of some Cheddar's Pink Dianthus flowers. I also adhered an embellished laser-printed map of Cheddar, England. Really crappy DPI, so it is grainy. The board is mainly painted in acrylic and a combination wash and drops of india ink. I did not want to paint another cheese wheel. I have never attempted a floral subject before this. I might not attempt another floral subject after this.
Tony is kind of a man's man. So I got a kick out of painting pink flowers for him.
He likes the painting and will be displaying it in his fantastic new bachelor pad.
