Cheeseburger in Paradise

I have to do one more painting for my 2009 food and art calendar - but this isn't the one. Our recipe for November is Turkey Panini. Well - this panini turned into a cheeseburger! I was going for the fall colors, but I think I ended up with more of a tropical look instead. At first I was really bummed - UNTIL I looked at this painting with new "eyes" and thought it's still a fun painting - just not a turkey sandwich with an autumn flare. I bought all the stuff to make the recipe, but the bread dried up before I used it. SOOO - I bought a turkey panini sandwich from Panera and I'm painting that. And we got to enjoy the sandwich! Great excuse to buy a sandwich from Panera!!!! Not on my eating plan - my husband ate most of it and he didn't complain at all.
I think this cheeseburger is kind of cute! Beautiful? Maybe. Sure looks like paradise! Now back to that panini painting . . . .
