Cake and Lobster by Martha Rich

August 19, 2011 by Chris Durso

Artist Martha Rich paints a variety of subjects — from inspirational women and vintage underwear ads, to the aforemetioned cake and lobster. But regardless of the subject, her paintings always show a signature style that is steeped in sarcasm, while celebrating the ridiculous.

Influenced by her collection of vintage cookbooks, Rich created a series of food art inspired by one book’s 70’s-style colors and “weird recipes and weird advice on how to entertain.” Rich then deliberately protects a few words from a page, and then, as if reveling in the book’s ridiculousness and to save it from further embarrassment, paints directly over it.

More of Martha Rich’s work can be found here. And big thanks to Lae for the tip.
