doughnut art
What is “donut art” you may ask? Or, rather, doughnut art? It’s just me playing around with Microsoft Paint (update revisiting this post 8 years later, I now use Photoshop and I’m kind of cringing at these drawings).
The idea behind these doughnut artists came from two sources. First, THIS POSTER as found on CakeSpy. Second, a sketch somewhere online of silly, simple artist “renditions”. They were not sweets, I think they were smiley faces? Or stick figures? In black and white. I don’t remember what artists were represented, but I chose the biggies, so I’m sure there is crossover.
Salvador Dali
Leonardo DaVinci
Paul Cezanne
Claude Monet
Grant Wood
Roy Lichtenstein
Pablo Picasso
Vincent Van Gogh
Andy Warhol

I have the b&w smiley face sketch on a magnet… don't kow who did it but most museum gift shops have it. I think mine came from the Art Institute of Chicago. Love your doughnuts!

Love the Van Gogh. I would totally hang a food-inspired Starry Night print in my kitchen.
Chic Cookies says
Ah, I knew it existed, thanks Doris! I keep googling everything I can think of, and still can't find the picture, but I'll keep hammering away.
Sue Sparks says
My favorite is the Picasso:)

The Van Gogh is just perfect!

You did those in PAINT???? I can't draw that well with photoshop!I too like the van Gogh one, and the Cezanne one on its little cloth. Maybe you should do them as actual donut cookies? 🙂

LOVE the doughnut artists… I'm an art lover & my husband is a cop…this is pretty much a symbol of our opposite, yet integrated interests! 🙂
