A Fun Recipe

I've been taking an online watercolor lettering class, with the idea that I might add more lettering to my journals or sketchbooks. Besides doing the letters, we also make curlicues and branches and various types of ornamentation. I've always enjoyed doodling and adding flourishes to things, so this is right up my alley.

Last week we had a lesson in painting rosemary among other things. My friend, Heather had recently told me about her crazy invention for roast potatoes with rosemary, so I decided to illustrate her recipe. She had the idea to insert the rosemary in the potatoes and her husband and son helped out by taking the potatoes to the workbench. The recipe has a become a family favorite and now you can try her tasty treat!

Here are some of the other things I've done for the class:

letters...

and lots of curlicues...

and scrolls--all very fun.
