Cherry Paintings in the Kitchen

"Cherries" by Marsha Mahan

I got these paintings, by local artist Marsha Mahan, at the Paseo Arts Festival in May, and for months they’ve hung above my stove. I was immediately dissatisfied with my decision to hang them there, however, as they were not very visible and I thought the steam and smoke from regular cooking might harm them.

So while we were trapped in our house during the Ice Storm, I reorganized my kitchen to give myself much more counter space, and re-hung these beauties on a stretch of wall that had formerly been blocked by our overly-numerous kitchen appliances, many of which are now stored in cabinets, as we almost NEVER make toast. I love them dearly, and I hope to get more of her work in the future.

    Yeah, I guess I should’ve mentioned in the post that the paintings are about four inches wide.
