Acrylic on Canvas | 36×36 inches | 2026 | Delicacies Series
Hot pink and mint green. Two colours that have absolutely no business being this good together — and yet here we are.
Mint Chip Sundae is pure, distilled, unapologetic joy. A magnificent scoop of mint chip ice cream sits in its footed glass sundae dish like royalty on a throne — that particular shade of aquamarine green that exists nowhere in nature except in mint chip ice cream and has been making people unreasonably happy since approximately 1945. Above it, a generous swirl of whipped cream. A cascade of rainbow sprinkles. A maraschino cherry at the absolute peak. A pink and white striped straw angled with the casual confidence of someone who has done this before and will do it again.
And behind all of it — hot pink. Not blush. Not rose. Hot. Vibrant. Unyielding. The kind of pink that makes the mint green sing louder, the glass gleam brighter, the cherry glow redder. A background that commits completely and holds the whole composition in a warm, electric embrace.
The sundae glass is the quiet triumph of this painting — that classic footed diner glass rendered with genuine painterly love, its facets catching the pink light, its shadow falling across the surface with the particular quality of something that has been looked at very carefully and painted with complete devotion. It is the detail that separates the painting from a poster, the craft from the concept, the artist from the decorator.
Part of the Delicacies series — a body of work that finds in the rituals of food and dessert the same capacity for beauty, memory and meaning that other artists find in landscapes and figures. Because the sundae glass on the formica counter, the straw at that particular angle, the first spoonful through the whipped cream — these are the moments that stay with us. These are the moments worth painting.

Hot pink. Mint green. A cherry on top. Obviously.
