Storytelling-Sketchbook Skool

The Homework was to illustrate a recipe as well as a manual on  'how to do something'
So, I tried to simplify after doing the huge pie! My manual is on 'how to plant Tulip Bulbs'
and another recipe on Breakfast Burritos. Where we live burritos are a big part of our menus.
You can make a burrito out of most anything, but is really good with eggs, peppers and potatoes!

Sketching a Recipe and Sketchbook Fun Class

 
 
I started another 6 weeks of Sketchbook Skool, and this is our first homework.
Sketch a recipe. I normally use the smaller 5x8 sketchbook, but I switched to an 8.5x11 and the pie crust GREW!  It got too big! Then I didn't have as much room for my finished pie, etc.
I normally draw with pen and ink, but did this in pencil first. I used watercolor and a little bit of gouache. It was fun, but very time consuming. You should try this recipe! It is very good, and you can use other flavors of kool aid.  Keri gave me this recipe a while back. You can make them in the little mini crusts too and they are so cute!
 
 
Sketchbook Fun Class on Saturday.
We had so much fun last Saturday, and I love seeing how different each person sketches/draws. They all have their own style. 
Dyan Newton, Faye Nelms, Anita Hancock, Thelma Cheatham (in the back)
Judy Bolton and Wadonna Davis.
