krimpets

Series: Foodie

Description: This Tastykake Co. "krimpets" still life was a commission from a Philly food fan who lives in CA. In this composition, I decided to represent the two kinds we grew up with: butterscotch and jelly. They're one of the food-nostalgic trips I can still take and not be disappointed by modernized corner cutting.

Tastykakes

Series: Foodie

Description: Tastkakes are a Philadelphia traditional snack cake that I grew up with. What makes them stand out among the national brands, for me is the fact that these are Butterscotch krimpets... Ive never found anything like them elsewhere. These are iconic Philly food, to me.

Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes

Series: Foodie

Description: Commissions are always somewhat personal and this one is even more special to me. This painting was arranged by the granddaughters of the late Phillip J. Baur Jr, the former chairman and CEO of Tasty Baking Co., and also the man responsible for the turnaround and success of the company his father cofounded. I am beyond honored to paint this iconic food nostalgia for part of the Tastykake family. I have already previously painted, out of pure love, some of my favorite local Philadelphia food items: krimpets, made by the Tastykake Co. So, I was thrilled at the option to paint another favorite that I grew up on; I admit I ate enough peanut butter Kandy Kakes to show up in my DNA. I bought extra just so I could get the right "bite" of a model. This is a professional burden I am willing to endure.
