Being inspired to paint from the dishes I’d created in the kitchen this summer, this came to me when cutting ripe, delicious white peaches and ruby red beets for my juicer. The colors spoke to me and I started doing blind contour drawings of the vegetables. When I started the painting, I adhered to the color palette but not to the actual contours of the objects, allowing myself to intensely feel rather than to strictly observe.
