From the Bread series.

This is another local area bakery gift of the baker, John McGrath, from La Colombe in the Fishtown area of Philadelphia. I've fallen in love with his talent and luxury of having such quality breads within walking distance of my studio. I was instantly enamored by the sesame-covered loaf on display. John was happy to let me have it. In my studio I couldn't help but once again be drawn to painting the view of the cut bread with all it's eyes and beautiful pattern. It was fun to include the sesame crust. I think I'll have to do more!
