Kitchen Art

For some reason, most don’t think of the kitchen as a place for art but I think it’s a great place for a little visual inspiration. The kitchen is such a sensory place (smells, textures, smoke, flames- the list goes on), why not add another element to the mix. I am not the proud owner of any of these darling prints, but I do have this handy print from Nashville’s Hatch Show Print hanging in my kitchen. Sidebar: If you love woodblock printing, letterpress and great design and find yourself in Nashville anytime soon, you must visit Hatch Show Print. They have designed all of the original show posters for the Ryman Theater for decades, their work is inspired and original. But back to the work at hand… some details:

Lemon Print by Tonje Holand and Ingrid Reithaug. This Norwegian duo has a way with fruit.

Citrus by Anna Bond. Anna and her husband own Rifle Paper Co., a great little design company whose paper goods I frequently ogle. I love this sweet print and its muted pastels.

Blueberry print by Ana at Anek etsy shop.

Orange by G. Anderson. A simple and bold handmade screenprint.

Citrus Love print by Ana at Anek.

Spaghetti print by Ana at Anek. If you like Ana’s style, she has lots of whimsical kitchen art at her etsy shop.

To Come: the beautiful illustrations of Tram Nguyen, half of the dynamic duo that produces the excellent food blog, Pen & Palate. A respite from all of the food photography in the blogosphere, Pen & Palate is a culinary journal accompanied by hand penned illustrations. I absolutely adore it. Their shop is coming soon where they will be selling their little culinary-inspired works of art.
