Contemporary Realism Candy Portraits

These Photo-realistic Sweet Paintings are Good Enough to Eat

— January 28, 2013 — Art & Design
We just want to reach out and grab these sweet candy paintings by Californian artist Jeanne Vadeboncoeur. The amazingly photo-realistic series of Gummie bears entitled: 'Tumble Gummies' really do look good enough to eat. In the series the iconic jelly bears stand around in quirky poses, either lined up or in pairs. Some of the expressive Gummie bears even look like they are lost deep in though.

Jeanne Vadeboncoeur is a 32-year-old artist from California. Her work focuses on everyday edible objects like donuts, cupcakes, eggs and even a stunningly realistic depiction of the plastic honey bear containers. Her whimsical, playful images provide a breath of fresh air and we're sure Jeanne's craftsmanship and ability to create photo-realistic imagery with paint is sure to have her in high demand.
