Herb of the Gods



Doesn't garlic have the most beautiful sensuous curves and papery texture? It's gorgeous to paint. I don't really know whether it's a vegetable, herb or spice...but in our house, it's the herb of the gods! This was today's musical inspiration to move and groove to. Love it! (Right click on the colored word 'this' and go to Open Link in New Tab to continue looking at the art while you listen.)

mmmmm garlic! "The herb of the gods" I love it! I'm in perfect agreement, unfortunately, not everyone in my house is so I'm forced to use moderation. :S

I love this painting! So beautiful! You couldn't have picked a better subject!
