The Fruits of Summer Show in Nectar Desserts


Donna, Nancy, husband Ron & I hung The Fruits of Summer show at Nectar Desserts this morning. Nancy painted 2 series of works featuring apples & cherries and some watercolour flowers with her calligraphy. Donna examined cross sections of fruits in fibre...


and worked flowers in her signature tissue paper drawing technique. I made little confections inspired by my memories of hydrangeas in my Nana's Garden series. I think they look like Nectar Desserts' executive chef, Rebekah Pearse's, fruit tart creations. If you click on the title of this post to visit her website, you will see what inspired me.


Rebekah wasn't coming in until this afternoon to get ready for a class she is teaching tonight so when we finished the hanging she hadn't seen it yet. We made groupings of works in the same shapes as the collections of furniture in front of them. We hope she likes what we did to her place.

Nana's Garden 1 - Finished


Here is Nana's Garden 1 finished & framed in a shadow box. I kept track of the hours it took to make - a total of 23 hours - so now I will be able to answer that question if anyone asks. It will be hung in Nectar Desserts for the month of August along with other flower & fruit themed work by Donna Clement & Nancy Dormer.
