His food paintings explore society’s fascination with, and ritualistic treatment of, certain culinary items; Thiebaud paints what he has called the “tattletale signs” of our culture. Thiebaud’s formidable talents run to a wide range of other subjects, including figure studies, “aerial” landscapes, and eerily vertiginous cityscapes, but the images selected for reproduction in this notecard set concentrate on his skewed, good-humored, pensive take on the sweet stuff. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eContains five each of the following notecards: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eCake Window (Seven Cakes)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, 1970–1976, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eCandy Counter\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, 1969, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eCakes and Pies\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, 1995, and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eSuckers and Sweets\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, 2000.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• 20 blank notecards (5 each of 4 designs) with envelopes in a decorative box\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Printed in full color on FSC paper with soy based inks\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• High-quality 250 gsm card stock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Soft white envelopes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Pomegranate’s notecard sets feature exclusive selections of art from museums and artists around the world\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBox size: 5.375 x 7.375 x 1.5 in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCard size: 5 x 7 in.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArresting and appetizing, Wayne Thiebaud’s signature paintings of cakes and pies inspire the visceral memory of buttercream frosting. One critic said, “You don’t just want to look at his pictures, you want to lick them.” Now one of America’s most critically acclaimed artists, Thiebaud (American, b. 1920) has long been affiliated with Pop Art, though his body of work is far more expansive. In his Northern California studio and across the decades, Thiebaud has explored various details of 100 years of American life through his luminous, richly textured art—from farm country landscapes and “aerial” cityscapes to figure studies and still lifes of shop windows—all the while continuing to explore the food subjects that brought him international fame.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pomegranate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54306210316579,"sku":"G-25974 0693","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/3349\/0791\/files\/0693.jpg?v=1756935139","url":"https:\/\/shopotlag.com\/products\/wayne-thiebaud-confections-boxed-notecard-assortment","provider":"Outside the Lines Art Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
