ALICE IN CHOCOLATE LAND
At Artisan du Chocolat we like to think of ourselves as artists who use chocolate as delicious medium of expression. We are proudly engaged in supporting young British artists, especially the chocoholic ones. Alice Turner is a talented debutante who is also addicted to our chocolates and who has illustrated our creations beautifully. Born in 1989 she graduated in 2012 with a B.A. in Fine Art Painting from City and Guilds of London Art School where she was awarded one of the graduate prizes. She currently lives in Brixton and her emerging work is featured in several private collections including in the collection of internationally celebrated artist Thomas Hirschhorn.
After a brief stint in our Chelsea boutique, her love of art claimed her back. She traded her tailored dress for her Oliver Twist lookalike charcoal covered overall and went back to the drawing board literally. Her deep knowledge of our creations (acquired from selling and eating many) inspired her to paint poetic water-colours and pencil illustrations of our chocolates. These are proudly featured on our website. Can you guess that each drawing illustrates? To find out, click on it.
