These one-of-kind candies
are so realistic you'll be tempted to eat them!

About this series - Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup was a part and was exhibited at the artist’s one-man show, “Chocolate Covered World” at Northwood University, in West Palm Beach, Florida. The multi-media exhibit depicted make-believe and a feel-good world that we live in – the chocolate covered world with a very sticky core! The show attracted over 4,000 visitors during its month-long exhibition.

". . . His large-scale depictions of candy bars are faithful reproductions. Yet the works have a resonance that takes us beyond the object we see. We bring our own cultural baggage to the picture, of course. Perhaps our own childhood memories. And we really re-see the image again after years of having taken it for granted. Rather than displaying coyness, the artist has managed to convey a refreshing directness in his approach to his subjects. Rez convinces us of his sincerity. There’s the innocent fascination for the objects of a new culture, not to mention the childhood memories of brightly packaged candies . . ."
