Diners Series Statement

I started painting Diners in 2007. Initially I envisioned the idea as a traditional still life painting project with the stencilled image of diners being part of this. The Diners are included within the fruits and vegetables and animals they are eating. Don’t we become what we eat? Some pictures have diners in field or garden settings where they could be picnicing. The diners are moveable. We go where the food is. The Diners are entwined in various postures and gestures. They are communicating in different ways. Handling of food, conversation, body language and traditional table manners are all ways in which we interact while eating together.
