Baked Apples

“Baked Apples” 12″ x 12″, Acrylic.

The cast iron radiators that hissed heat into that rambling brick house were unique to a child who lived with floor vents and furnaces in more modern homes.

They served their purpose well – keeping the cold Attica winters at bay. But they went ‘above and beyond’ when after a cold, damp morning of snowmen, snow forts, and snow angels – our sodden mittens, socks, and snowsuits were set to sizzle on the radiators all around the house.
