Sweet! The Paintings of Joël Penkman

Walnut Whips, Egg tempera on gesso board

Joël Penkman is a fine artist and graphic designer that we’ve featured here before on Food Art Friday. Seen in some of her latest work, the signature style remains — food item on stark gray background, and good enough to encourage paint-eating.

Inspired for the most part by British confectioneries and other sweets, Joël also creates stunning tea cups and packaged foods.
