Story Time


16" x 24" — Oil/Canvas — 2009
• SOLD

This is another piece for my June show. It has pre-sold (along with 1:00, 2:00, 3:00) so I'm sharing them a little early.

Painting these books really lights my fire. I picked up the "It's Story Time" book at an antique shop near my house. Its red cover and the simplicity of the title really are a great contrast to the heavy, dark books.

Hi! Christopher Stott,
Once again!...What a very "beautiful" painting entitled Story Time.I really like the way, that you captured light and shadow(s) in this painting(s).

Btw, that painting (in the right hand corner)
of the 1 cent red bubble gum machine is very
beautiful and realistic looking too!

Thanks, for sharing!
DeeDee ;-D

Hello DeeDee, thanks for the comment!

The bubblegum machine is another for the show, I'll share a larger image in a week or so.

Great work!
