This is one of my all time favorites, it has a long story about the process by which it was created. The head of the Art Department at my school said that he liked it very much because it was sac-religious: comparing the Mother of Christ to a Donut. A pastry. A sweet and tasty treat which was nothing more than a sugar coated hole. I think that this guy might have been more than a little deranged. I chose the subject matter from the page of a Catholic calender in my grandmother’s kitchen. The donuts came in when I needed a background and that was the snack that I was currently eating. Nothing more.
