The texture of the cheese cake is perfect.
Its quirky, meaningful engaging and beautifully realised. Well done Rachel and thanks for sharing it so well Emma.
Cheesecake is so realistic! Well done Rachel.

Love the purple teeth. Was the cheesecake drawn because of the earlier cheesy remarks.?Would like to know how you thought of this idea. I have purple rimmed glasses.
Thank you Rachel and Emma. A really interesting and beautifully executed painting which drew feelings of discomfort. The purple gives me a sense of something almost sinister. Either intentionally or not, this provoked an emotional response which goes beyond a ‘nice’ painting.
Lovely work. Thank you for sharing .
Ideas feeding into materials feeding back into ideas feeding into method feeding back into materials and more ideas. Round and round it goes. It’s what it’s all about.
