About the Item
Mary Ellen Johnson is internationally recognized as one of the top Photo Realist painters working today whose extraordinary area of expertise is large-scale, unimaginably realistic, stunningly beautiful and delightful images of food. Currently available is this gorgeous bowl of raspberries, blueberries and strawberries with whipped cream, a mouth-watering slice of cherry pie with vanilla ice cream, an equally amazing strawberry parfait sundae, and a delicious slice of cherry cheesecake:
Mary Ellen Johnson
"Berries and Cream"
Oil on Wood Panel
24 x 20 Inches
Note: This painting is framed in white wood.
The artist has also completed many commissioned food paintings including the Canadian Government's request for images of 5 of Canada's favorite foods which subsequently became stamp images - and The Cheesecake Factory's two commissions for their corporate headquarters and the owners' Malibu beach house.
A quote from the artist:
“I make the panels large to give a monumental feeling to the painting when viewed. These large images not only confront the viewer with their size but with their tremendous sense of extravagance. My work explores the deep connection that food has with humanity.”
Mary Ellen Johnson
Johnson further describes herself as a ‘Precision Realist’ whose primary subject is food. Sold works include paintings of PB
J sandwiches, pancakes with blueberries and syrup, banana splits, ice cream, hot dogs, cupcakes, waffles, muscles and sushi, among others. Unequaled for their brilliance and dramatic depictions of mundane subjects with their connotations of nostalgia, comfort and tradition, it is also her scale, cropping and over the top technical skill that renders these works so overwhelmingly appealing!

Mary Ellen Johnson
Mary Ellen Johnson is one of the foremost American photorealist painters working today whose extraordinary images of food have won her international acclaim and recognition from her many devoted followers in the U.S. and abroad. Johnson also enjoys commissions and has executed many for some of the top restaurants in the country as well as for the Canadian Government, which commissioned Johnson to paint images of 5 Canada's favorite foods to reproduce the images as stamps. Mary Ellen Johnson states, “I make the panels large to give a monumental feeling to the painting when viewed. These large images not only confront the viewer with their size but with their tremendous sense of extravagance. My work explores the deep connection that food has with humanity.” Johnson describes herself as a Precision Realist whose primary subject is food - cheesecakes, PB J sandwiches, parfaits, pancakes, banana splits, ice cream, hot dogs, cupcakes, waffles, muscles, sushi and more. One of the leading photorealists in the country, Johnson's paintings are unequaled for their brilliance and dramatic depictions of mundane subjects with their connotations of nostalgia, comfort and tradition, but her scale, cropping and extraordinary technical skill is what renders them so overwhelmingly stunning and appealing. Johnson's paintings are acknowledged by the leading collectors in the country to represent the very best of the Photorealist tradition.
