The nice thing is you get to eat the props.

I was thinking to myself, how is he going to top the butter painting from yesterday. By george, you've done it! What a wonderful series. I am glad you are stuck in dairy land!

Taxing or not, the outcomes are worth it. At least you resisted eating your subjects before the work was completed

I like to work with colors that are quite similar. My best work is in the greys and blacks with slight nuancaes in the reds and roses. You are superior in tone and drawing. Susannah

This painting with the warm colours of the bread and cheese recalls similar moments in France when I was ready for some bread and cheese. It is impossible to resist the cheese and baguettes there, and you have created the moment of anticipation just before the knife cuts into the cheese.
