Moments: Food as Art in Photography and in Paintings

I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. I came down with a nasty head cold on Friday so no The Scene Today or Found shot. Instead, I used my time in bed to catch up on my reading and indulge myself with Coconut Bliss Naked Almond Fudge, Rice Milk Whipped Topping, and Grain-Sweetened Chocolate Chips (100% allergy free goodness!).
 
Non-Dairy Dessert
 
Three of the books I read were Decorate (*affiliate link; pictured above beneath my dessert), Delicious: The Life & Art of Wayne Thiebaud (*affiliate link), and Plate to Pixel: Digital Food Photography & Styling (*affiliate link).
 
Food as Art
 
I also sorted through over four months of catalogs and magazines that I'd filed away. I tore out styling and products that caught my eye and, inspired by Decorate, I even created a few mood boards for our bedroom. (I'll share where we are with decorating our bedroom and what we're still lacking later this week.)
 
How about you, read anything interesting lately?
 
Ciao Bella!
Eden!
