Alyssa Zack has spent her entire life surrounded by art, good food and the ritual of gathering around the dinner table. Her grandmother is a painter, her dad runs specialty grocery stores throughout Southern California and her sister owns several restaurants in Los Angeles. You can see these influences play out in her paintings, many of which are an ode to the joy of communal dining. A mixture of warped perspective, realistic rendering, playful colors and bold patterns evoke the memories of a candlelit meal with loved ones. Alyssa received a bachelor of fine arts from Otis College of Art & Design. She currently resides in Los Angeles, where you can find a few of her works in restaurants around the city.
