An eerie take on the mental processes that occur for many people when eating food, Crying in the Kitchen is a variation of a classic still life. The juxtaposition of the chips, something that often creates a feeling of guilt after eating, with the fresh fruits, that tend to prompt a calmer reaction, and the box of tissues ready for when disaster strikes, create a visually intriguing display that was both informative and challenging to paint.
