Cambozola

oil on wood, 12x9"

Cambozola, original artwork by Mike Geno

This is a triple cream, brie-style blue cheese from the German region of Allgäu. It's a delicious combination of creamy rich brie and a subtle Gorgonzola lively zest. I had tried it served cold, previously and had found it easy to forget. This time, painting it and having some sit out for hours, it's a whole new experience and one worth the wait. This is addictive and dangerously easy to eat all up in no time.

This model was generously provided by a cheese friend, Scott who offered to bring a whole wheel to my studio for this commission. He connected me with the producer and they were happy to donate it to the cause when I mentioned I had some difficulty finding it. I definitely will be painting it some more!
