Naarm/Melbourne based painter, teacher, home cook, romantic, Brooke Holiday lives where food meets feeling, and story meets still life. Her paintings, inspired by objects and domestic rituals, carry emotional weight: a bruised pear, a flicker of candlelight, a beloved market trip.

Food is her other creative language: barfi from her grandmother, a fridge frequently stocked with Salsa Verde, drop-in dinners and butter on everything. “Cooking is storytelling. It softens people.”

Brooke Holiday's recipe is Salsa Verde, which we made right after the interview and served on our oven baked snapper!
