Forbidden Fruits of FODMAP: Sprouted Onion – 20” x 20” (50.8cm x 50.8cm) oil on gallery width panel (2024)
I didn’t realise how much heavy lifting onions and garlic did for me until I couldn’t cook with them anymore. I went into the crisper and found my onions had sprouted and thought it was pretty dang symbolic and couldn’t help but paint them. Pink and gold and beautiful in their oniony glory, I present them sitting on Volume 2 of a health encyclopedia with Volume 1 open to the section about the digestive system.
