A red ceramic bowl sits centered against a deep black background, filled with wavy noodles in cream and gold tones held aloft by red chopsticks. A red rectangular label bearing Japanese characters floats to the right, while bold red lines frame the composition with graphic precision. In a kitchen, dining space, or anywhere food art finds its audience. Made to order by hand at our own Denver facility, it arrives as nine wood panels, each a half-inch thick with a keyhole on the back so it hangs easily. The natural grain shows through the artwork, so no two come out exactly alike.
