Choosing just one donut from a baker's dozen can be a daunting task.  Why not just choose a sampling?  In this case, we have selected a trio:  a powdered sugar donut, a chocolate glazed donut, and a donut with pink icing and colorful sprinkles.  Just don't wear black while eating them!

Green-Lipped Mussel Shell



Green-Lipped Mussel Shell by Kristine Kainer
Oil
6x6
Purchase Information

The contents of this green-lipped mussel shell were enjoyed at a recent excursion to a nearby seafood restaurant/raw bar.  Also known as the greenshell mussel, it is from New Zealand.  I must say that, despite its long journey to Texas, it was incredibly meaty and juicy.  Flavored with a little bit of garlic butter, I was in heaven.  Of course, upon seeing both the inside and outside of the shells, I had to abscond with a few (wrapped in a napkin) in my purse to to immortalize later as paintings.  Here is my first attempt.

Upscale Supermarket Sushi


"Upscale Supermarket Sushi" by Kristine Kainer
Oil
10x8

Upscale upermarket sushi has more variety in the nigiri section than most chain grocery stores':  imitation crab and surf clam (both belted with a ribbon of nori), bluefin tuna, salmon, yellowtail tuna, shrimp, bonito, and mackerel are the freshly caught and sliced offerings.  Instead of the typical maki (rice surrounding a filling and encased with nori), uramaki  is offered in which rice is the outer layer surrounding the filling and nori.  As to be expected, the price is noticeably higher as well.  Set against a black background, this sushi looks stunningly gem-like which befits these treasures from the sea.
