Dmac, this is nice. I like the placement you have used. It's interesting, we were just working on a painting of gum balls today in art class. We are doing it as a poured painting. By the time we finish, it will have some ink and probably pastel on it as well.

Thanks for your comments. The gum balls were challenging.

This sure brought back memories.  My grandfather used to give us 2 cents and we'd run down to the gas station to buy gumballs.  Well done - love the reds and greens.

I  like your perspective on this one. I recently painted a gumball machine so I guess it goes without saying that they are FUN to paint.  Love what you did with yours!

Thank you Sunny! I checked your gumball maching painting and I like your perspective and the background colors. (And I remember looking at it back in August and thinking, "Nice work!")
