Emmental 2, original artwork by Mike Geno

From the Cheese Portraits series.

Part of a group of commissions, I was able to revisit the quintessential "Swiss" cheese. I loved making this a back-lit portrait, like a monument to cheese. My friend Susan compared the glow of the edges of the top eye to that of the silver lining of a moonlit cloud. (sigh)
