Slice of Gateau

SLICE OF GATEAU Acrylic on Canvas | 36" × 48" | 2026 Delicacies Series

There is always one perfect moment at any celebration. This is it.

The cake has been cut. A single generous slice sits waiting on its plate, fork poised, a glossy maraschino cherry perched on top like a small, perfect punctuation mark. The whole scene unfolds on a red and white gingham cloth — that most nostalgic of tablecloths, the one that means summer, means family, means somewhere someone is happy.

Slice of Gateau is painted with the warm, unhurried affection of someone who has been to this party and loved every minute of it. The white frosting is luminous, layered with the kind of careful attention that makes you almost reach for the fork. The cherries gleam. The gingham hums. The knife rests at a satisfied angle.

This is still life painting as pure joy — the Delicacies Series at its most celebratory, most nostalgic and most irresistible. In the great tradition of food painting from Chardin to Wayne Thiebaud, Slice of Gateau takes its place at the table with complete confidence and absolutely no apologies.

Have your cake. Hang it too.
