Beautiful work on the cake and cookies! To keep from eating it is praise worthy in itself. You really did a great job on the frosting and glass jar. Makes me hungry.
Sculpt, mix, tactile, smell, drag, scrape, texture, wipe, dry, wet, brown, thick, thin... am I speaking of food/baking or painting? Obviously they share many qualities.
Your work brings to mind an Aussie artist Ben Quilty, who took the expression "you are what you eat" to the extreme. Using lovely thick lashings of paint he presented us with death on a plate, a skull-burger! I saw the work recently at TarraWarra, and it is quite a profound piece. I must say though, your depiction of food looks yummier;)
Yes, I was depicting my response to the food - not what it could do to me if eaten in excess!! Maybe I should start painting the protein powder and fish oil caps I've been eating to give a more accurate picture of my diet! Uhm....... no that doesn't like much fun to paint...
I am a surfacing artist working for Dreamworks. In the past I've worked for Disney, Warner Bros., and Sony Imageworks doing Texture Painting/Look Development, and Matte Painting. Since graduating from the Art Center College of Design with a major in Illustration, I've been blessed to work steadily in the Animation Industry. I also greatly enjoyed painting landscapes, still lifes, and figurative works. Here I'm pleased to share my latest work as well share insights I've gained over the years.

Sensational! the pink paint really looks like frosting. I like the composition and the fact that you painted the rest of the picture relatively thin.
don't know you, but I'm starting to feel a little concerned about your dietary choices. lol.
Frosting Ray Roberts would be proud of! Tasty!
o man, eric. this is too much! good stuff...cani make a request? how about brownies with walnuts?
Silvina: Thanks... I had fun with the thick paint! I just paint the stuff - I leave the eating to the rest of the family.
William: Now that's sayin' something!
Donald: Thanks... I'll keep my eye out for the brownies! I might not be able to resist eating them before painting though!
Nice -- now I'm hungry. -- Kevin

Enough to motivate me!
So, you had your cake and painted it too... Is that icing Windsor Newton, Grumbacher or Betty Crocker?
Holbein icing for me... and largely it is because of the consistency!

Hi Triecia,
Yes, I was depicting my response to the food - not what it could do to me if eaten in excess!! Maybe I should start painting the protein powder and fish oil caps I've been eating to give a more accurate picture of my diet! Uhm....... no that doesn't like much fun to paint...
Yes please go on with the yummy foods so I can continue to indulge vicariously ;)
Hmmm... your paiting is yummy
I like the overall harmony of painting
Yes it looks edible with a fragrance of delightful pink.

Yummy foods it is...
Tim - thanks for your kind words! Your portrait studies are very nice! They remind me of Jove Wang's work. You seem much nicer though...
Thanks again!
Hey Eric, my fellow Tirage Gallery friend... nice work! I didn't know you were on blogger too.
