Wayne Thiebaud Cupcakes

Wayne Thiebaud (pronounced Tee-bo) is the artist known for his delicious looking paintings of cakes and pies. I found a really good video about him on YouTube. His demeanor is quite touching and his paintings look so good in the angled video shots where you can see the texture on them--yum!

I enjoyed drawing and copying the cupcakes and coloring them in, but struggled with the background colors. Here's the original idea at Art Projects for Kids.
