DUET is this week's prompt at Illustration Friday. This is a painting I completed about a month ago and I think it fits the bill. I am in the Philly area and we sure do love our soft pretzels here! I am originally from NYC and we loved our pretzels there too, but the NYC pretzels are an entirely different configuration. In any shape, soft pretzels are best bought from a street vendor on a cold day, eaten warm with a zigzag of mustard. If you get a blob of mustard on your cheek and someone kisses it off...all the better!

Very lovely and scrumptious painting!
this is a cool concept
Beautiful quality.
Wow, great paintings!
A love duet on Philly Pretsels sure is an original interpretation of this weeks Illustration Friday theme.
Well done painting!

I've never tasted a soft pretzel of any shape! :( I like the colours of your painting.
Beautiful use of highlights and shadow... and great colors in the background.
Yum! I must say, being a New Yorker and all, I do love Philly pretzels more! You've really captured them!
Your paintings are terrific! The colors are so rich and I like your painterly style. The pretzel duet really pops; beautifully done.
very nice
This is so fantastic.
And I love the light and color of your paintings, they transport you to another time. Really beautiful work.
Beautiful...reminds me a bit of Abbey Ryan's lovely work!
Hi everyone, thanks for the compliments! Sarah, thank you, Abbey has recently become a friend of mine. For years people kept telling us we had to meet because our work had a similar sensibility! It's nice to meet other members of one's artistic "tribe!";-)
