The Painting Blog of Acrylic Realism Artist Kim Testone
“I take whimsy very seriously…”
Hey there, I’ve put together a little video slideshow of 16 of my most recent happy ice cream paintings, from late 2023 to today. It’s nice to see them all together because it helps me to see how far I’ve come.
Some of the paintings are very recent and still available. Most of them have been sold. Please feel free to visit Hidell Brooks Gallery in Charlotte, North Carolina, either online or in person to see what’s left.
Thanks so much for visiting! Hope they make you smile!
ABOUT THE ARTIST
I’m a full-time acrylic realism and trompe l’oeil painter creating whimsical food paintings inspired by real-life creations that I bake, decorate or scoop in my kitchen. All of my paintings are flat, painted with many thin layers of acrylic paint, aiming to look at three-dimensional as possible. I hope you’ll join me on the journey of creating art that brings a little happy magic into the world. I’ll be sharing my process, my insights, and hopefully some things that will inspire you to appreciate the little things around you every day.
