Multi-talented Carole Condé has turned her hand to creating these very naughty-but-nice bakery delights – where the pastry, cream, dustings of sugar and oozing jam all look enticingly realistic.
Art good enough to eat – but no calories!
Regardless of subject, at the heart of all Carole's work is an underpinning respect and appreciation for fine draughtsmanship and a love of encouraging the viewer to see wonder in the everyday.
This passion for drawing attention to the overlooked or commonplace, has resulted in a new body of still life paintings, including these amaziing patisserie gems which have been created specially for our summer 2025 Indulgence exhibition.
She continues to work across a range of media and styles, happily switching from traditional set-ups, where objects emerge from dark backgrounds, to ones with a brighter, more contemporary feel.
Whatever their mood, all her still life paintings combine light, colour, composition and brushstrokes to depict the beauty and detail in commonplace, domestic items in a way that transcends the object.
Mouthwatering, delicious art – perfect for a kitchen or dining room arrangement. Temptation in view, on a daily basis...
ABOUT CAROLE CONDE
Carole is a fine artist living and working in Gloucestershire.
She is a very versatile artist and has produced work for clients depicting subjects as diverse as human portraiture, vintage bicycles, American fairground rides, Greek and Roman statuary, beautiful country homes and even building sites!
Her large charcoal drawing that shows the demolition of the old Whitbread Flowers Brewery in Cheltenham is owned by Cheltenham Museum & Art Gallery and is on display in The Wilson.

Carole gained her Fine Art degree from Birmingham School of Art in 1994. The following year she began teaching drawing and painting to students on pre-degree Art Foundation courses, before taking the plunge a decade later and becoming a full-time artist.
She first exhibited at Spencer House Gallery in summer 2024 when she won our inaugural co-sponsored plein air competition at Painswick Rococo Garden. Her work has been highly sought-after here ever since.
