Drawing Tuesday - ingredients

The theme is self explanatory: the bits that make the whole. But the whole of what - most likely, a recipe, but it could be other things too.... 

Sidenote ... It's October, and for the daily drawing crowd, that means "Inktober". I started and was enjoying the "visual research" inspired by the prompts, but very quickly fell by the wayside. In researching "how to draw with ink"  I watched a couple of videos that may be of interest. One is 20 tips for beginners, and another gives two simple warm-up exercises that will help develop a steady hand and fluent lines.


From Helen - 



From Ann - Coloured pen drawing of ingredients...and collage of onions.





From Hazel -  an illustration made using scraper board for New Society in the 1980s. It was for an article on food entitled 'Fish - festive, frugal ...' I think fish is more expensive today!



From Judith - Know your fungi, are these an edible ingredient. Found on Marshes south of Walberswick



From Najlaa



From Richard - I keep trying to reproduce a meal, with these ingredients, which the mother of friends of ours in Puglia gave us once. Unforgettable aroma from the kitchen then it tasted fantastic. I’ve not quite cracked it yet! 



From Sue S - A colourful array of fruit ‘n’ veg. Caran d’ache & soluble wax crayon.



From Jackie - neocolour crayons... fridge veg basket full again ... supper decisions to be made!



From Joyce - here’s one I did in lockdown for Urban Sketchers.



From Mags - Ingredients for Waldorf Salad (  apples and walnuts) using homemade botanical inks bought from Amanda Thesiger during East Kent Artists Open Houses. No green so no celery ( perhaps I should have drawn with it.. ) 





From Janet B - Bread and butter pudding; most of the ingredients



From Sue B - a quick sketch of white and red onions in a favourite provencal green bowl…pencil only!



From Gill - I scratched into a piece of Tetra Pak , took a print from it by hand, then added crayon.




From me -  "Ingredients for a takeaway curry ... and ecodisaster"
