“Breakfast”

#32: Elf, 2003

Acrylic on Paper, Winter 2022

For the holiday season, start your day with a saccharine blend of the core Elfin food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup.  One suggested amalgamation of refined sugar and complex carbs for a cozy winter breakfast is a hand-tossed mixture of spaghetti, maple syrup, chocolate syrup, M&Ms, Sno-Caps, and After Dinner Mints, topped with a light crumble of untoasted Chocolate Pop Tarts. A simpler option would be to consume a whole roll of Toll House Cookie Dough as fast as you can, followed by "snuggles" with a loved one.
