View from Fern Tree Walk, Martin Johnson Heade 1887 | Portland Art Museum

Art, by its nature, is illuminating. The sweeping, yet finely detailed landscape art of the Romantic style merged in painters who also loved the microscopic clarity of naturalists.

In those features I feel the merging of the beauty of art with the beauty of home. The same sense of losing oneself in art exists for me in the multi-sensual pleasure of working with food ingredients. We create anew.

Thinking of writing and cooking as the features that appoint a ‘home’ appeals to me. I imagine that what I offer to readers has its own structure, a way of thinking, perhaps, about food, writing and travel as the beauty, the illumination that lights the home.

I welcome you.
