FOOD AS ART

I spend a lot of time thinking about food. Don't we all? But more specifically - food as art. I will buy a cookbook just for the photography, even though I may know going into it that I'll never prepare a single thing in that book.

One of my very favorite blogs at the moment is "What Katie Ate." (http://www.whatkatieate.blogspot.com/) I am dumbstruck by the visceral beauty of Katie Quinn Davies foodie photo blog! Katie, a graphic designer turned photographer and food stylist, never ceases to amaze with her stunning images! Another very talented foodie photographer is Jonathan Lovekin, who shot the evocative and yet earthy images for Angela Hartnett's Cucina. Have a look at both of these very talented artists' work and tell me what you think...is food art or is art food? Either way it's just beautiful!
