A Scoop of Sunshine

This playful 4 x 6”, 3D mixed-media piece captures the joyful simplicity of a summer treat. A textured swirl of bright orange "ice cream"—smooth and glossy like a burst of citrus sunshine—sits atop a sculpted waffle cone painted in rich chocolate tones. The scoop is crowned with a scattering of colorful sprinkles, adding a delightful pop of whimsy and nostalgia. Set against a cool mint background, the contrast between warmth and freshness creates a striking visual harmony.

The artist combines bold texture and vibrant color to transform a simple ice cream cone into a celebration of happiness, childhood, and sweet indulgence. Each raised detail invites the viewer to look closer, evoking the irresistible temptation of a freshly scooped cone on a bright day.
