Course Description

Overview

Illustrating foods is one of the most sought out topics in watercolor.

This class is everything you need to get started with food illustrations and painting your heart (stomach) out! We will go through the basic principles of light and shadow, then progress towards how light and shadow are to be portrayed in food and drinks which would make the illustrations look real and yummy. 

There are two class exercises where we will learn to paint glasses, drinks, and food (a cupcake and cake slice) from real view and then progress to the 4 class projects where we will learn to paint from images.
