White Donuts on a Black Plate

Oil on masonite, 6x6"

I really like the triad of red, black, and white. Something about it really gets your attention (perhaps that's why you see it in so much advertising these days). The other day, my fiancée had a plate of mini powdered donuts and the contrast of the white donuts on the black plate was really striking to me. So when I sat down to paint last night, I made the same arrangement, putting the plate on some red paper.
