a thing I thought: on food and art.

I love food. You’ll learn that as we get to know each other a little better. I love cooking it, I love eating it, but I also love looking at it.

Food in art has kind of been a thing forever. I mean still life paintings? There's food. And it's in art. And it's toooootally super old.

This little project took me all of half an hour, and very little brain-power (the whole thing was done while watching the most recent episode of downton abbey.) It's so simple, and I really love the crafty-effect it has (almost as much as I love how cheap and quick it is compared to framing!)
