Pie à la mode

PIE À LA MODE Acrylic on Canvas | 36" × 36" | 2026 Delicacies Series

A single perfect slice. That's all anyone ever needed.

Pie à la Mode arrives on its white plate with the quiet confidence of something that has been perfected over generations and knows it. A generous slice of cherry pie — lattice crust golden and slightly imperfect in the way that only homemade things are, the filling deep crimson and glossy where it meets the pastry — sits centre canvas on the most satisfying red and white gingham imaginable. A cloud of cream perches on top. Not whipped cream from a can. The real kind. The kind that means someone was paying attention.

The gingham tablecloth — the same one that appeared in Slice of Gateau, the same one that means summer and family and somewhere someone is genuinely happy — hums its red and white rhythm across the entire canvas, giving the composition a warmth and nostalgia that the painting wears completely without apology. This is the America of diners and county fairs and recipes written in pencil on index cards that have been handed down so many times the pencil is barely legible.

The painting is a view from above — the pie presented rather than discovered, the cream precisely placed, the whole thing composed with the care of someone who understands that food, like painting, is an act of love made visible.

Pie à la Mode. The Delicacies Series, completely in its element.
