Café Table

With a friend, I was visiting cafes and bakeries to snap reference photos for upcoming paintings. This was in Andersonville in Chicago, an area well-known for its bakeries. I believe this was at A Taste or Heaven, 5401 N Clark St. Of course, we had to endulge. When I saw these treats sitting on their plates, I knew instantly that they would make a delightful little painting. The two treats have the rich impasto technique so they stand out from the rest of the scene. ©2008 Barbara Sistak Baur, 11”x14”, acrylic, framed. Sold.
