Watercolor on 11"x 15" Strathmore 140lb. Cold pressed watercolor paper.

This is from a photograph of the last loaves of bread I baked before my job went to using Par baked bread (Frozen, then crisped) a year ago and passing it off as fresh baked bread. We used to get fresh dough delivered daily from a local facility and would shape it into the beautiful loaves of Rustic, focaccia, ciabatta, Baggettes, tomato basil and white miche that customers associate with the brand.

It is no secret, a quick Google search will show that this company is closing all the fresh dough facilities and turning to frozen bread. Founded as a bakery, but not truly baking any longer.
