Ingredients
This was one of five paintings I completed specifically for an art show in
Manhattan. The show had a theme of "Text in Visual Art," so I approached
this theme by gathering photo references of anything in the world around
me that had text already on it. The title of each painting then became
something in reference to the text in the painting. This was from a photo
reference of a Ben & Jerry's ice cream factory in Vermont, used with
permission by Dave Baker. I found the milk and cream labels on these
enormous silos to be amusing. The day was very grey and rainy, so those
are storm clouds in the sky.
