From the Cheese Portraits series.

Stefanie is a talented cheesemaker in Berks County, Pennsylvania and I've had the pleasure of meeting her a few times when she's in Philadelphia delivering her cheese or leading tastings and pairing events near me.
I was thrilled when she offered a wheel of this Brie-like soft and almost gooey cheese. It's a delicious mushroomy, buttery smooth treat that I enjoyed painting and then devouring afterwards! I went with a darker environment for this one, creating a naughty drama vs the sweetness of the pink world where the "Ivory Bell" resides, I think my two Dairy Milkhouse portraits would make a GREAT pair when displayed together, just saying. Heck, I'd give a discount if anyone agreed enough to buy em both.

It's just nice to add another PA cheese to my #cheesemap !
