I am drawn to painting sweets for their enticing textures, shapes, and colors that seduce you with mouth-watering rewards. These iconic images are a visual feast for the eyes while eliciting nostalgic childhood memories, when life was uncomplicated. They evoke a time in my life when an Oreo or Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup was the center of my universe.
