French Artist Sandrine Follère on How Art & Cooking Are Alike — Kitchen Tour
This week I shared a peek into the Toulouse kitchen of Sandrine Follère, a French painter and sculptor, who welcomed me into her home with a beautiful and improvised lunch that capitalized on the delicious ingredients that the south of France offers.
