The Painting Blog of Acrylic Realism Artist Kim Testone
“I take whimsy very seriously…”
Here are some short clips of me painting the Orange & Yellow Sherbet Cone, acrylic on panel, 16″ x 12″, showing the progression from beginning to end. My paintings always consist of layers over layers, clarifying the shapes and colors as I go. I hope you enjoy! Thanks for watching!
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.
