Apples Cheese and Almonds

My work is about composition and abstract shapes. I want my paintings to grab a viewer from across the room and draw them in. I am using food in this series, because I love to cook and food is something that is familiar to everyone. But this series could really feature anything, because it is about the abstract interlocking shapes created by sun and shadows, bold blocks of color, and the beauty of the food and translucent elements.
