Believe it or not, despite my bakery loving aesthetic, I do eat fruit and the occasional green juice. I completed this fruit platter after a similar, more caloric, Valentine XOXO cookie platter, and it reminded me that there is quite a good selection of available (and colorful) still life props right there in your local grocery store! Go figure! Have you tried a pomelo? So good…a grapefuit, lemon and orange walk in to a bar….
I’m painting more these days, not quite at the pace or flow that I’m accustomed to…but better. And better counts. I’m switching things up a little…like painting fruit! I’m sure this phase will last one painting (hey, this painting is rare!! lol) but fun to arrange on my platter and take arty photos at 10pm when I should be thinking about winding down. This is the bliss and pitfall of working from home.
Whether this finds you in a fruit or fancy cake mode, I hope your week is sweet. xo
