Illustrating Recipes with Anya Toomre and Tara Larsen Chang - Online Sketchbook Series

For Adults and Teens
All skill levels welcome

This online workshop explores different ways to create illustrated recipes in the media you prefer. Looking at many examples, we will discuss composition and overall page design, types of hand drawn lettering, and explore stylistic variations. Discover what interests you most in recording your recipes and then how to enhance the written recipe with your pictures and design elements to create a beautiful whole. Anya and Tara will share their different artistic approaches, and provide live, real time feedback as we work on our recipes in class. Small projects will be provided if you don’t have your own recipes to work on.

Each week we will share examples for inspiration and discuss what parameters to consider in creating your own. You will have time in class to work on your own recipe project, and get advice on how to proceed as needed. Email your progress before or during class and we’ll learn together as we share and discuss approaches and refinements. You should be able to easily complete at least one recipe during our time together.

Don’t want to draw your recipe ingredients? How about collage! You can utilize cut paper, rubber stamps, photos, or any other two-dimensional elements you desire!

Classes will be recorded, and recordings are available for up to 3 weeks after class ends.

There is a $35 cancellation fee. No refunds for cancellations received less than two weeks before the day of the workshop.
