Thank you so much Karin… as you know food is my thing… it’s my favorite subject matter to paint… I feel so much at peace when I’m painting food… it’s a totally different feeling from painting landscapes and other subject matter… I’m back to food for a while, as I’m planning to do a book, but of course there will be other types of work in between…
