Pot of Potatoes watercolor 13 x 17 |
Fresh Produce is alluring....to shop for, to prepare and to paint. I have always enjoyed painting fruits and vegetables....they are beautiful and they are a part of my life. Seasonal foods are exciting. We are graduating into the warmer sunshine of Spring and the offerings at the market will be changing as well. Actually, when my children were small, I spent a crazy amount of time in the kitchen daily. Cooking is where I first experienced "flow" and its remarkable comfort and sense of well being. Although my time in the kitchen has morphed into time in the studio, I still enjoy my time spent there.....for the most part....there are definitely exceptions. My future daughter-in-law is studying currently at the Cordon Bleu in San Francisco and has a remarkable facility in food preparation. I enjoy working and learning with her.
"Pot of Potatoes" has always been one of my favorite paintings....it just offers up something so basic that is part of me. I also offer two of my favorite food blogs. Partake. Enjoy. Paint.
