26. 5 tips to make illustrated recipes

Let's draw and illustrate like there's no tomorrow! 
Or well. Actually, there sure is a tomorrow. Because that's when my online workshop 
on illustrating recipes and drawing food is starting!

1. Keep it simple when you're drawing. 
A recycled piece of cardboard, white paint and a black fineliner can get you a long way. 

2. To give your lettering that 'je ne sais quoi', 
use alphabet stamps. Play around with them to get fun results!

3. Draw your food to get a daily routine of making art.
You're eating every day anyway, right?
It also helps you to document great recipes.

4. You can totally pull it off and create a simple illustrated recipe like this too!
Choose something with few ingredients to start with an take it step by step.
 5. Submit your recipe to TheyDrawAndCook.com
You can do it!
Like these three previous participants did for example:
By Tina Johnson
By Cathy Levesque
By Kaiva Narbute
 
There's so much more where all this came from
Will you join my online class?

30. pippa's pumpkin smoothie...yummy:)

here is a smaller size version of my FIRST entry to they draw and cook. it is for a contest entitled cooking 4 kids
http://www.theydrawandcook.com/cooking-4-kids-contest
as soon as i came across this contest a week or so ago, i knew had to give it a shot. with two other deadlines looming at the time, there was still no stopping me. i have been wanting to illustrate a recipe for the longest time now so this was the perfect opportunity.
i knew i wanted it to be easy to read, easy to follow, cute and most importantly healthy. so i figured with fall right around the corner....why not do something with pumpkins (which i love)!
i took my sweet little character pippa, some pumpkins, an easy recipe...and a cute little crow and voila...pippa's pumpkin smoothie!
i just submitted it to they draw and cook so i'm waiting to see how it looks once they review it nad post it on their site. SUPER EXCITED!!!

32. Auntie Lou, on the go

Hooray! I finally finished my little painting - the first one I've done in an embarrassing stretch of time. I was really tempted to make this a bit more 3D as I had been working, but the canvas texture was sort of a dominating factor, and I didn't want to put myself off to just plain finishing it. I can't wait to hang it in my daughter's room and move on to my next project. There are so many little 'fun' projects to choose from if you aren't burdened by actual deadlines. Here's what I'm mulling over working on next:
They Draw and Travel
They Draw and Cook
Undercovered Cover Art
Illustration Rally
or maybe just a good ol' Illustration Friday

Speaking of savour (this week’s Illustration Friday theme), you’ll want to savor the salty, spicey, sweet flavor of these little gems.

Make some, they’re easy!
