New York- Old York

Celebrate the season with chocolate!  That's what I often say.  And why not when the chocolate comes in delicate shiny little foil wrappers?  I think it is important to test the chocolate to make sure it is tasty.  Sure, this still life painting could have worked as two pristinely wrapped mint chocolates, but I wanted to make sure that what was inside was as good as I assumed-and I was in the mood for celebrating.  In case you're wondering, it was excellent chocolate.

The Art of Fine Dining

As a foodie, I do think there is an art to fine dining.  I appreciate creative plating, the arrangement of colorful edibles, and of course the taste!  Fine dining doesn't have to mean expensive.  It just means fabulous food!  Often, the silverware, plates, or glasses capture my attention and beg to be painted.  Their colorful reflections of the food nearby or the way the light falls on the details are simply too interesting to ignore.  The placement of pea-sized gold pearls on the fork symbolizes the whole experience of enjoying good food and adds another design element to the sharp edges already in the image.

Shell Game

Shell Game

The shyster's game of shells is turned on its side in this painting titled Shell Game. Graduated sizes of shells are placed vertically, one on top of the other with each shell containing a different number of steel ball bearings. The harsh, steely color of the balls arranged inside the soft, iridescent pearl hues of the shells make this painting captivating on many levels.

Unsuspecting people fall for the shell game over and over, and you will be drawn into this painting again and again seeing something different each time, but without the consequences.

My Middle Name (The Lisa Special)

My Middle Name
12 X 12
Oil on Panel

I am a confessed coffee drinker!  Oddly, I drink mostly decaffeinated coffee but I still have an obsession with it.  It's been very convenient to have a Starbucks drive-thru about 45 seconds from my house and I've been there so many times that there is a drink named after me called the Lisa Special.  When I pull up to the speaker all I (or anyone else for that matter) have to say is that I would like to order a Lisa Special and it is magically served to me at the window.  Talk about an efficient way to get a cup of coffee!

I call this one My Middle Name because I have been to Starbucks so many times that it should indeed be my middle name.  I believe I have personally put many a teenager through college with my addiction.  I probably should have titled it THE LISA SPECIAL.  Let me know if you'd like the specific ingredients and you can order one too.

I have an extensive collection of 45 records that I adore, songs that take me back in time to moments of my childhood and teenage years.  A few of them are rare but overplayed and scratchy and I still love them.  This Apple 45 is one of those and I thought it a great backdrop for a still life painting.
