We’re afraid in that case you’ll have a fall. / We’ve been watching you over the garden wall / For hours. / The sky is darkening like a stain / Something is going to fall like rain / And it won’t be flowers. This might happen any day / So be careful what you say / Or do. / Be clean, be tidy, oil the lock, / Trim the garden, wind the clock, / Remember the Two. W.H. Auden

/ “Lemon Curd and Blueberry Tart” is part of the “Delicious” collection..Watercolour on Arches Not Paper… Featured in Light in the Darkness…. This new series is definitely a reflection of my particular experience… it is at once a commentary on the richness of our culture and at the same time a reflection of my daily life…food is essential to life…suffice it to say we can’t exist with out it ... Painting food has a long history and according to Kenneth Bendiner in the comprehensive “Food in Painting”, is a separate classification of Art…He “underlines the central importance of 16th century innovations in food subjects and the great influence of 17th century Dutch art in the development of food imagery”. / He explains, with examples of paintings by the likes of Rembrandt, Chardin, Manet, Warhol and many others, how “food images can be purely symbolic, surrealist, and an element in allegories…he also shows the optimistic, human centered Renaissance spirit of food painting, and the way abundance, success and fulfillment pervade this art”. “But the illusion fails, and time returns us / to noisy cities where the blue / is seen in patches, up between the roofs. / The rain exhausts the earth then; / winter’s tedium weighs the houses down, / the light turns miserly—the soul bitter. / Till one day through a half-shut gate / in a courtyard, there among the trees, / we can see the yellow of the lemons; / and the chill in the heart / melts, and deep in us / the golden horns of sunlight / pelt their songs”. excerpt…Eugenio Montale / / (Click image to link)
In his sumptuous exploration of food images (Food in Painting), Kenneth Bendiner states, that ” food for the art historian can be the one area where conscious rules and dignified ideas need not hold sway - the real urges and concerns of a painter or his society can rise to the surface. There’s a certain freedom in the margins of art - where experiments and indulgence can operate—in other words more can be learned about someone from his backyard, than from the street façade of his house.” The latest painting from the series” Delicious” is “Scone with Berries and Cream. The Berries are a type of black berry, available all year round here… Watercolour on Arches Paper…Featured in Happy Haven… I grew up in a society where tea time was sacrosanct… dashing into the house after school, at four o’clock in the afternoon straight to the table which tea was laid, was an everyday thing… the weather was hot and the tea was refreshing… after several cups, one felt at peace with the world. Clotted Cream came from England in jars or tins but my mother also whipped up a wonderful cream from the top of the milk that came straight to our home from a neighboring farm every day…dinner was much later on in the evening ... You and I are great souls. / And we come together for a time. / We meet over a cup of tea here on earth. Shall we leave our shell and join with each other? / Shall we put down our shield and armor? / What will become of us if we do? / What horrible fate awaits us if we are defenseless? Tea is a time for love and tenderness without fear. / It is a time for sharing and learning and growing. / Come now, leave the battle gear behind. / Brave with me and let’s have tea. E.Grey Watercolour on Arches Paper.. One day through a half-shut gate / in a courtyard, there among the trees, / we can see the yellow of the lemons; / and the chill in the heart / melts, and deep in us / the golden horns of sunlight / pelt their songs* The strawberry is rough like a slave’s arduous life / Vermillion, green, and fuzzy like an inscripted pathway / It tastes like the first candy bar in a child’s life / It looks like a cold soda on a hot summer day / Sounds like the Sirens decepting voice. (Click images to link) Blueberries as big as the end of your thumb, / Real sky-blue, and heavy, and ready to drum / In the cavernous pail of the first one to come! / And all ripe together, not some of them green / And some of them ripe! You ought to have seen ...
