SANGUINE 3 Tier Cake Stand

Isn't it fun to change things up and show your guests a fancy turn? These 3 tiered cake stands are great for a bruncheon fruit spread or after dinner dessert or just a fun way to have small party favors displayed by the door or just let them eat cake. It's not always about the icing on the cake but also how it's served. Plus, aren't these just fun!

ABOUT THE PAINTING:

SANGUINE: Acrylic on canvas, 14 x 14 IN.

Sanguine means cheerfully optimistic but is also an adjective describing a color as being reddish or ruddy. This piece is the first piece I started and finished when I moved back to Colorado after a 2 and a half years’ sojourn in Dallas. It was a long and trying time in Dallas, the whole spectrum of emotions. At the end of it all, I look back on the stay with no regrets because I did it out of love. There are times I wish I’d done things better, wish that circumstances had been different but I did as best I could and was able. I’m glad to be back home, though “home” of any sort seems like a distant dream... with Dallas as my hometown and Denver as my adopted home, I feel like my space in this world is in the process of rediscovery. That said, as my duties to my family lie behind me, I’m happy and ready for new things to come into my life. I look at this piece with the layers of reds, oranges and golds, the lines upon lines, and think of the vital journeys we have in this world. I think of how we can start in the same place yet end up in completely different destinations because those are our separate courses. Then, there’s the overlapping of our lives and the intersections we encounter, all have purpose. I genuinely love life and live in love with life. To me, this piece is a snapshot of that pulse.
