Dessert Pantone Tarts




These Pantone tarts rock!! French food designer Emilie de Griottes for a special feature in french culinary magazine Fricote developed dessert tarts that recreate Pantone colour swatches. Berries, carrots, lemon, candies, and other foods are arranged upon a tart base, whose bottom is iced in white and marked with the pantone colour represented. You can find recipes for making the tart in Fricote issue number 6 (2012). And meanwhile take a look at this collection of desert tarts.

New Painting: Justin Vernon of Bon Iver




Title: We're Savage High (Item #ASV085)
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
Size: 7.25 X 8.25
This work was inspired by indie folk group Bon Iver's self titled album. I decided to paint front man Justin Vernon for two reasons. First, I am a fan! Second, I am amazed that all the songs were written and composed solely by him. They've just won a grammy award for "Best New Artist" and "Best Alternative Music Album," check them out at boniver.org. Also, if anyone is interested in this work, please contact me.
