SWEETS TO THE SWEET

These two gouache/ink illustrations were recently commissioned from me by stellar foodie blog

Blue-Eyed Bakers.  A very fun departure from my usual subject matter - the only drawback is that my mouth starts watering as I paint. Good thing their blog provides me with some great recipes to cure my craving!  For information on commissioning your own work, please feel free to contact me here.

I am heading out of town today to meet up with a good friend - hope you all have a terrific weekend!

KELLY MARKET

I'd like to thank Atlantan Kelly Ottinger and her cool site Kelly Market for including my "Do Not Trifle With Me" poster in her gift guide for foodies. Being a foodie myself, it was fun being included. What little time I spend watching TV, is usually on the Food Network and eating is one of my greatest joys in life. I would love living abroad in different cities, painting nothing but the unique culinary offerings of each place.

This time of year I look forward to roasted chestnuts, brie, home-made shortbread, roasted turkey (mostly for the golden skin) and butternut squash, heavy on the butter! What delicacies do you enjoy this time of year?
