Description
Tomato Kanni
Acrylic on Canvas
This "Tomato Kanni" painting is a commissioned artwork. The client is an avid gardener and loves to cook, and wanted a painting that gives him a connect with his passions.
When I took this on, I was inspired by my mother's Tomato Kanni recipe. "Kanni" means curry in our language. This is a recipe created by my mother, and is an integral part of every meal that she sets on the table - without which the meal seems incomplete.
The elements in the painting are mostly the ingredients of the recipe, and the setting is on a table with the cut tomatoes on a brass plate. Earlier, brass kitchenware was more common in our kitchens and this painting evokes a sense of those times - of the rustic kitchens, wood fired stoves, smoky atmosphere, heavy aromas of spices and of homely, delicious dishes.
