Wayne Thiebaud: Five Eating Figures


I really like Wayne Thiebaud's retro inspired art. He is well known for his neutral paintings that usually incorporate food in some aspect. I am particularly drawn to this piece of work because I like the 1960's vibe to it. I also like the composition of the art and how he placed the people in a natural setting that appears to be on the beach. I have learned that Theibaud art is reminiscent of his actual memories, so maybe he was at the beach this day and was inspired by these five people. Its simple but still tells a story and captures a time era.
