Food Illustration: Sushi in Ink and Watercolor. A Sketchbook Practice

Japanese food is not only delicious, it is also a joy for the eyes. That's why sushi makes a perfect subject for your sketchbook in ink and watercolor. 
I'm Elisabetta, a watercolor artist with a passion for food illustration. I find it endless fun and a continuous source od inspiration! So get started today!
In this class, we will sketch together a lovely board of Sushi, step by step. Although it's an easy task if broken down in little steps, it's full of details and a very rewarding project.
If you follow my class, you will learn:
to simplify a complicate reference image
to paint in multiple layers to add depth
to make your sushi pop through consistent and bold shadowing
to mix colours to add colour variation and add interest
to paint sketchy yet realistic and believable food illustration
to add texture to food through dry brush and other techiques
All this new skills make this new Sushi class perfect for beginners and intermediate students. 
This class is the natural continuation of one of my most successful classes: Sketch a Japanese Storefront.
Supplies needed for the Sushi  project are very basic and listed in the project section.
So….come paint with me! We are going to have fun together!
