Seafood Charcuterie (Richard Coletta)

On a recent trip to the Netherlands I was invited to a beachside restaurant on the North Sea.The food was served on long polished wooden planks. It occurred to me as I sat looking at the food in front of met hat people only perceive what is in their line of vision.How could I view the entire experience? What do others see? I decided to stand on my chair and view the length of the table and how the food was presented as separate elements to the meal. The result of that experience is this painting.
