sketches of snacks devoured



A cake and a Turkish coffee on a cold, black winter evening, and mussels stuffed with spiced rice for a rainy afternoon by the Marmara sea. The waiters at the fish shack were delighted by the portrait of their dish, and even more so by the actual grain of rice I had spilled on the sketched rice, which blended in beautifully.

Beautiful works!
Do you use watercolour and coloured pencils to achieve this look?
Nice to travel vicariously through your blog.

Thank you so much, Matthew!
I use an HB mechanical pencil and watercolours.
