Watercolor Snacks, a Review

Inasmuch as I would love to be a painter, I’m simply not. I am, however, a collector of paints and various paint-related accoutrements — watercolors, acrylics, paint sticks, mica powders, water color pencils, water brushes, if you can name it, I probably have it. When I learned of Watercolor Snacks, I was eager to get my hands on a copy as it appealed both to my love of food and desire to paint; it did not disappoint. Quite the contrary, it delighted and inspired.

With only the turn of a page or two, I had surrounded myself with cups of water, paintbrushes, and all of my supplies. A filled watercolor sketchbook later, I had page after page of painted food stuffs, in various degrees of completion, done in watercolor, following the informative directions, and ending up rather pleased when all was said and done. If, like me, you would like to be able to try your hand and be reasonably accomplished at watercolor, and if the thought of painting food appeals, stop what you’re doing, and order a copy of this book now. You can get one here.

 Perfect for beginners, the author provides step-by-step, easy to follow instructions on how to paint your favorite foods. Informative, yet not condescending, the author gives you information on supplies, techniques, how to fix mistakes, and overall be happy with your art.


This book will appeal to artists and food lovers alike. If you would like to expand your creativity in a new direction, this is definitely the book for you.
