Nightcap

"Nightcap" began with a snapshot of my kitchen window, taken from outside at just past dusk when the sky was dark, but weirdly illuminated by city lights. The exterior lights cast a strange yellow light on the grey walls of our house.
I was thinking about windows and reflections, so I created a grid of bright sunny sunrise colors which I promptly buried behind iconic clouds.
A wedge of lime invites you to have just one more before turning in.

Eggs Benedict

I think Eggs Benedict is one of the best low-brow fancy meals. Poaching eggs and making hollandaise both require better than average cooking skill. It’s just hard enough to do right that you can really impress your friends if you can pull it off.
