Create watercolor paintings that make you want to reach out and take a bite In this comprehensive guide, illustrator Thanh Huynh--popular online for her custom recipe and menu paintings--teaches intermediate-level watercolor artists everything they need to know to paint a variety of foods through 25 detailed projects.

Watercolorists who want to level up their painting skills or expand into a new subject area will soon become obsessed with painting the food around them. They'll master how to paint the flaky layers of a croissant (notoriously a tricky texture to render), how to create the glossy texture of a chocolate eclair or how to shade in the noodles of a plate of pad Thai. To fully round out this reference guide, Thanh also shares techniques to master sketching (a key element of creating realistic paintings), ideas for designing recipe card layouts and a helpful ingredient library featuring sample sketches and paintings of simple ingredients and culinary tools. By the end of Thanh's masterclass in a book, watercolorists will be able to confidently sketch and paint any food they like, including their own keepsake family recipes or custom commissions to monetize their art.

This book will have 25 projects with step-by-step illustrations.
