This work is titled 'Death by Chocolate' and features Australias favourite biscuit, the Tim Tam. A small work about 30 x 30cm on Lana 300gsm hot press paper, primarily graphite, but inclusions of gold ochre Karat colour pencil to give the suggestion of gold and rich chocolate.
I found the little cake plate at my local Opp Shop, its a lovely bone china design with autumn leaves... that I have modified.
I ate the Tim Tams.
One of my works for my upcoming exhibition 'Food For Thought' at SOL gallery here in Melbourne.

I LOVE those skeletons!

I love how they go unnoticed in the peaceful scene of bone china plate and biscuits.... only to find bodily remains amongst the foliage.
PRICELESS!

. Death by chocolate indeed!! And just in time for Halloween

!
Love the concept, but pass on the cookies. Looks like the last customers paid an awful price for nibbling on them
Seriously though, I’ve seen Tim Tams here in Canada in some specialty stores. I’ll have to pick some up next time I see them!
