Food & Drink & Social Gatherings

Some of my favourite paintings are in this section. I particularly like the surrealism of painting creatures like Devils and Demons, Fairies and Monsters doing everyday sort of activities. Often they are eating, drinking or just hanging around chatting - hence this gallery of 'Food and Drink and Social Gatherings. The Seven Deadly Sins are great for this sort of subject, but a devil's got to have lunch as well sometime, and even conjured demonic monsters probably like ice cream. And then of course there are the scenes of everyday mistakes - like walking into the wrong bar when you're meant to be meeting someone, and finding it's full of Demons, but not wanting to leave straight away and actually admit you are in the wrong place - see The Wrong Cocktail Bar - well of course this happens the other way round, too - in The Wrong Bar: Part Two it is the Devil who has walked into the wrong place - just because your are evil, doesn't mean you can't be a little absent minded as well, now and then...
