My first solo art show of small still life oil paintings, mostly fruit and vegetables. Thanks to Mary Z for all her hard work!
It was during the Artist Q&A that I realized that my audience assumed I also enjoyed cooking. Now I don't mind chopping a few onions and peeling a carrot or two but Culinary Arts are really not my forte.
It was then that I switched my attention from the fridge and the fruit bowl, and opened the snack cupboard - bring on the donuts!
