sous chef artblock

  Miranda menu planning for the upcoming holidays... Each Miranda artblock starts with an initial layer of a handwritten story (with this piece it tends to be on the joy of making food for the people you love). This layer is sanded lightly before the next paint layers are added. The final layer is the hand-blended shadows of Miranda & the cookbook to ground her in the landscape.. description average size of artblock: 5" W, 6.5" H, 1 - 1.5" D wood species will vary according to what we have on hand. (The piece pictured is reclaimed sycamore) complimentary wrapping with a small card telling a brief history of the chosen wood & the bird & brush series each block is shaped & painted here in the studio with our unique bird & brush process:  the final piece has 6-8 layers of paint, ink, & graphite (including the secret handwritten story...) - making each an original artist the original art was created by Kai on 22 September 2022
