Description
The Violet Star Artichoke otherwise known as the traditional Italian 'Violet de Provence'
The Italian Artichoke.
This is a digital painting done in Procreate by hand with acrylic paint and other brushes.
Artichokes have always been a special food we have at Easter, Christmas, and other holidays in the Italian Household. My Dad's Mom made the best stuffed artichokes eva!! She stuffed every leaf carefully with a stuffing she made with bread crumbs, olive oil, fresh garlic, chopped pepperoni, chopped olives, and a little spinach and then put them in a special pan with water or chicken broth half way up each artichoke and slow cooked them in the oven covered till tender. Every leaf was out of this world. I've made them a few times, but cannot get them like she did. Maybe with a little more practice I can get closer to that flavor. Something you just can't forget. Made with lots of love and they are a lot of work to make.
