DESIGN DETAILS
“Pops I Melted” is a Limited Edition print on canvas or fine art paper signed and numbered by the artist. It includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
"Pops I Melted" by Doug Bloodworth is a photorealistic painting. Doug refined the craft of photorealism by combining pop art, photography, and textural paint strokes.
The essence of "Pops I Melted" captures the sweet surrender of a partially melted double-stick popsicle. The cherry flavor practically radiates from the canvas, its glossy, sun-kissed sheen begging to be licked. One stick, stained a deep cherry red from the melting ice, holds the popsicle aloft, casting a delicate shadow onto the cool white surface. The other seems to beckon for a second hand to join the sweet adventure. The once-solid ice surrenders to gravity, creating a crimson puddle. Tiny droplets cling to the sides, like glistening rubies, while miniature rivulets trickle down, leaving trails of sticky sweetness in their wake.
"I loved the dramatic lighting and used comic books and snacks…..a lot of them being the products that I had painted all those years," described Doug on how he started photorealistic painting. "I really enjoyed this and painted my products as they really were (I love painting the crumbles) and bags, maybe wrinkled and upside down. I considered it almost anti-advertising."

I enjoy evoking the viewer’s nostalgic feelings of one’s childhood, be that in comic books, games we played, or our comfort foods.
