Sugar and Spice and All Thing Nice
I took a trip to our downtown Eastern Market to buy spices and then made paintings. Some spices included garam masala, curry powder, raw cocoa, Hungarian paprika, turmeric, crushed spearmint, dill seeds, lavender flowers and more... The drawing is done with coffee (Medaglia D'Oro Instant Espresso) and there are touches of 23K gold leaf and patent leaf on some. The whole house is fragrant.
