Strawberry Jam by portrait artist Morgan Weistling

Strawberry Jam by Morgan Weistling, available from Prickly Pear Galleries.

 

"I have loved jam on bread since I was a kid. I used to watch reruns of 'The Little Rascals' and there was a character on the show that was always eating a big, thick piece of bread with loads of jam on it. My model, Emily, is a very quiet and neat little girl. When I first directed her to let some jam drip on her hands and on the table she could barely make herself do it. But after a while, she really got the hang of it. Before we were done, Emily had consumed half the jar." - Morgan Weistling.
