The painter Wayne Thiebaud (1920 - ) is known for supplanting traditional still-life objects like partially eaten fruits, oysters and nuts with what he considers contemporary equivalents like hot dogs, pies and cakes. In his famous painting Cakes (1963, oil on canvas, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D. C. ), he paints a dozen cakes with such rich and heavy impasto that the paint literally looks like frosting!
Thiebaud uses heavy pigment and exaggerated colors to dipict his subject, and the well difined shadow characteristic of advertisement are almost always inclued in his work.
