I 'm an artist who loves pastry displays...the colors, the arrays, the contrast of dark and light in the pastry case. One day I was looking at my photo of tarts and then at an old cookie sheet past its prime. An idea was born. Pastry paintings! I often paint on old trays and cookie sheets, with a kitchen's history baked right in. Click on a photo for more information. Go to my Contact page for any questions.
