Bill Wurtzel is a visu­al artist who uses healthy food as his medi­um. He began mak­ing food art just to amuse his wife Claire as well as entice their kids and grand­kids to eat what’s on their plate. He gets inspi­ra­tion from the shapes, col­ors, and tex­tures of food. After he snaps a pho­to, the ​“art” is eat­en. Prints of Bill’s art has been exhib­it­ed in gal­leries and muse­ums in the U.S and abroad. Bill and Claire, an edu­ca­tor, have co-authored six books illus­trat­ed with Bill’s food art (three ​“Best Children’s Books”). Bill is a for­mer award-win­ning adver­tis­ing cre­ative direc­tor (“World’s Best TV Com­mer­cials”). He is also a renowned jazz gui­tarist (Count Basie Counts­men, Harlem Blues & Jazz Band). With Fun­gi, Bill takes food art in a new direction.
