Artichokes are built in layers...protective, structured, almost armored. But at the center is the heart. In this painting, I leaned into bold brushwork and temperature shifts—cool blues pressing in around a warmer interior glow. This piece continues my Provisions series, where everyday food becomes a quiet metaphor for appetite, protection and vulnerability.
