Nusa Dua, London

I seldom take the time to draw a meal in a restaurant because I hate eating food that has gone cold. But this was a basket of Indonesian rice cracker-things that came before my meal.

Perfect for drawing. Pencil in a Cass Art sketchbook.

drawing with recipe

Happy Thanksgiving!

A food-related post seems required today. After I drew the propped skillet, I added a background.

Have you ever made bananas Foster? This is a simplified, similar dessert:

Melt butter in a skillet. Put in bananas (cut lengthwise) and apple slices. Drizzle honey over the fruit. Brown on both sides. Remove fruit and continue to simmer honey/butter until it reaches a caramel level you like. Pour over fruit.

Sometimes I add low-salt peanuts, too. Great when served with ice cream!

drawing breakfast

I like to eat hot food while it's still hot, so I only draw cold meals. This is leftover salad for breakfast since it was already a hot humid day.
