Artist's Statement:
At home, I rarely have anything approaching a formal breakfast. When traveling, however, I look forward to breakfast as the first cultural event of the day. The storied "full English Breakfast" is a favorite of mine - whether served in "dominions" (e.g., New Zealand) or in London, England. This painting reminds me of a luxurious start to a wonderful day.

I like breakfast-time better than any other moment in the day.
No dust has settled on one's mind then, and it presents a
clear mirror to the rays of things.
George Eliot
Humor keeps us alive. Humor and food.
Don't forget food. You can go a week without laughing.
