Quirky Food Depictions

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Steve Bartlett Paints Pictures Featuring Abnormally Large Confections

— March 10, 2011 — Lifestyle
Steve Bartlett is a Los Angeles-based artist whose whimsical paintings depict fruits, vegetables and baked goods of abnormally large size. His artworks feature a giraffe nibbling on humongous cupcakes, an elephant picking at a giant loaf of bread and men tending to a massive pear.

It's evident that Steve Bartlett has had years of experience while fine-tuning his creative skills, earning a BA in Arts at the Kenyon College. His oil canvas paintings are narrative works that combine his imagination with real-life experiences. I can only imagine what kind of real-life experiences shaped his images of such large edible objects. If these ginormous foods really do exist, the foodie in me is aching to experience them in real life as well.
Trend Themes
1. Gigantic Food Art - Creating larger-than-life food art installations presents an opportunity for immersive brand experiences and social media engagement.
2. Whimsical Narrative Art - Combining imagination and personal experiences in narrative art allows for unique storytelling and emotional connections with viewers.
3. Foodie Fantasies - Exploring the concept of oversized food in art taps into the growing interest in experiential dining and culinary innovations.
Industry Implications
1. Art and Design - Incorporating larger-than-life food creations in art exhibits and installations can attract art enthusiasts and collectors while offering a unique sensory experience.
2. Food and Beverage - Restaurants and food brands can collaborate with artists to create interactive dining experiences featuring oversized food, showcasing creativity and capturing attention.
3. Marketing and Advertising - Brands can leverage the whimsical and captivating nature of Steve Bartlett's art to create visually striking campaigns, sparking curiosity and conversation among consumers.
