Sexy Jelly Donut Paintings
Yup, you read that right: sexy.
These oil paintings are by artist Emily Eveleth, who has been painting donuts for two decades. That dedication is kind of amazing. On why she chose donuts as her subject:
"What I immediately found compelling... was the appeal of the irony in presenting, in a seriously and formally painted manner and on a monumental scale, an object that was at once so ubiquitous, so ordinary, so everyday. The object of my paintings, is not necessarily the subject. But I do like that it keeps coming back to the object. I’m not trying to negate that."
In other news: We are now craving for something cranberry-filled.
