Alice Straker

Alice Straker is a British artist who creates vibrant and thickly textured oil paintings of food and drink from her studio in Hampshire. Alice’s work is steeped in nostalgia and often heroises her favourite childhood dishes such as chocolate eclairs or ice cream, with the intention of elevating the everyday. Her work has a delicious three dimensional quality about it - you almost want to eat it off the walls! Her colour palette is rooted in colour theory and regularly features contrasting colours to enhance her subjects. Alice draws inspiration from her family’s love of cooking - her twin brother, Thomas Straker, is a chef, and her degree in Art History. Alice’s work is striking and original and she has paintings hung in houses globally.
