Paintings from a Small Town. Original oil paintings by John Vander Stelt. Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Tulip Festival Painting - Part 1. Director, Juliana Pennings. We all met on a sunny winter afternoon in a room with large windows in the Northwestern College Learning Commons. Shown in the photo above (left to right) are my wife, Denise, Ryan, Adam, Cohen and Courtney Boone. I had told Juliana I wanted to use wooden buckets if she could find any. She was pretty relentless in searching for them. Th...The n...

Paintings from a Small Town. Original oil paintings by John Vander Stelt. Friday, April 3, 2015. Tulip Festival Painting - Part 2. As you can see, the whole painting was completed in these tones prior to adding any other color. I had family members who saw the painting at this stage and thought it was finished. Nice of them to think that, but it was far from done! Next blog post will show the completed painting and unveiling event. April 4, 2015 at 11:05 AM. April 4, 2015 at 12:36 PM.

Paintings from a Small Town: Starburst Fruit Chews
http://johnvanderstelt.blogspot.com/2013/10/starburst-fruit-chews.html
Paintings from a Small Town. Original oil paintings by John Vander Stelt. Wednesday, October 30, 2013. Just in time for Halloween, a candy painting. I think it is a combination of my love of painting, graphic design, pop art and of course candy. Over the years of posting to this blog, there have been paintings of a Reeses Peanut Butter cup. My personal favorite candy), a Twin Bing. And a piece of Double Bubble. Add to the list a pack of Starbursts. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Paintings from a Small Town: Hershey's Kiss
http://johnvanderstelt.blogspot.com/2010/02/single-kiss.html
Paintings from a Small Town. Original oil paintings by John Vander Stelt. Wednesday, February 10, 2010. A Single Kiss 6"x6" oil on hardboard. Recently, a friend and fellow artist, Darren Maurer. Did a couple of paintings featuring Hershey kisses. With Valentines Day coming up this weekend and the fact that I seem to be in candy mode lately, I thought I'd paint a kiss as well. Capturing the reflective wrinkly wrapper was enjoyable. For a link to the story. Kristi Van Der Weide. February 11, 2010 at 7:38 AM.

Paintings from a Small Town: Bit-O-Honey
http://johnvanderstelt.blogspot.com/2014/01/bit-o-honey.html
Paintings from a Small Town. Original oil paintings by John Vander Stelt. Monday, January 13, 2014. The paintbrushes have been taking a rest–or I suppose in all honesty, I have. This is another small painting of candy that I just finished. The Bit-O-Honey candy has always been somewhat underrated in my opinion. Maybe it is because it is wrapped to look like a candy bar, but when you open it, it is more of a taffy. Is that what you'd call it? Whatever it is, I have always liked it. View my complete profile.

Paintings from a Small Town: Reeses
http://johnvanderstelt.blogspot.com/2008/10/reeses.html
Paintings from a Small Town. Original oil paintings by John Vander Stelt. Thursday, October 30, 2008. Reeses 5"x7" oil on hardboard. Well, what did you expect today? It wouldn't be Halloween without some candy. I picked one of my favorites, the peanut butter cup. For the record, I'm also a fan of Snickers and M&Ms (plain or peanut). Have a safe and happy Halloween. October 31, 2008 at 6:51 AM. October 31, 2008 at 11:28 AM. November 1, 2008 at 4:35 PM. November 2, 2008 at 5:16 AM. View my complete profile.
