Charcuterie with Meats
“Charcuterie with Meats” is a recent addition to my Still Life Gallery. Cured meats are the star of the show here along with a nice wedge of blue cheese, and a few olives and peppers. I lit the scene a little differently this time. Instead of the well-diffused light, I typically use I illuminated the tableau with a bit harsher light set at a lower angle to the left side. Thus creating somewhat darker, more dramatic shadows.
Charcuteries seem to be the new, new thing this holiday season. I noticed more than a few articles on where to buy the perfect charcuterie board – the old cutting board you already have apparently will not do. And then the articles on what to put on your perfect board. It seems as though those writers don’t give us readers much credit for having any common sense or imagination.
