Foodies as artists

Tomatoes!  Luscious ripe and ready for summer. I am thankful for garden produce that artistically adorns the table and overflows the trug strongly hinting at being made into preserves.
Food art is summer's flow, culinary centre pieces are consumed and conversation spills around its enjoyment.

Wouldn't it be nice if art was as accessible as tasty new potatoes and juicy strawberries?  Discerning the finer flavours and subtleties does require some consideration and curiosity not too disimilar to the visual artists' produce.
Taste is a developed sense, art appreciation is too.

It is hard to not want to draw and paint food, I have done before and maybe this summer again...
