Caged Condiments — Fine Art

Caged Condiments - 2000 shows rows of little containers held behind a clear barrier. Wayne Thiebaud paints each one with a dry brush that leaves a rough edge on the surface.

The fine art print comes ready to hang. The white frame gives the image a clean edge on the wall. Against the bright lid the white trim stays soft and does not draw the eye away from the paint.

It works above a kitchen counter where you stand while making breakfast. From the sink you notice each container and the small glint on the lid. On the breakfast table the line of shapes leads the eye along the edge of the wood. The white frame stays quiet under the overhead light.
