Chocolate Bar Wrapper Art

[miss_montrose]

The chocolate bar wrapper that I'd like to make into a piece of art on canvas:



Only, I'd like to orient it horizontally rather than vertically; I'd like to change the color scheme from analogous yellow-orange-red to blue-purple-red (or light blue-plum-pink to be exact); and I'd like to change the Theo logo into something else... a flowering plum branch, perhaps? 

Why do I come up with more projects for myself than I can ever complete?

Mmm! : ) Yes, I can see why! The colours and texture really catch the eye (what they intended, obviously! Heh!) and that splash of sky blue/leaf green make the contrasts stronger.

I'd have to bespeak the Resident Artist ; ) for a loan of the drawing tablet to change colours (I have a feeling it would be quicker than paper/pencil) but I can see it tricked out that way, with a Zen-like branch of plum flowers thereon. If only direct download from the brain was possible... ;) but given what I read about development of EEG 'hats', it may be sooner than I think.

You'll notice I chose not to comment on your rhetorical question. : ) (Except I did) Why *do* we? Keeps the creativity flowing? Produces balance? That's my answer, and I'm sticking to it like a Permanent Sticking charm! :D

I'm glad you like it. And I'm glad you caught that splash of blue/green--a skillful touch, I thought. I was thinking of projecting the image onto canvas in order to trace it. Translating colors is something I had to do a lot in color theory, so if I can find the time, I think I can manage it. I'd paint it in house paint first since it's large scale, then overglaze in oils (the lady at the shop offered to give me a demo on that) for grander effect. : )
