Art
inspired by food
Currently
I am in the final stages of an art meets recipes project
where I perfect seasonal recipes that 'happen to be
vegetarian' and use these as the inspiration for an
accompanying painting. There will be 140 recipes at the end,
each with an artwork. 35 per season. All the vegetarian
recipes are available online for people to make use of. Even
carnivores should enjoy them. They are there to make your
life easier if you need or want to prepare a vege meal.
The project is currently the main subject for my blog, so
you can easily follow the progress, dish by dish. On
completion, all the recipes and paintings will be compiled
into a real-world-printed-on-paper cookbook which will be
available to purchase.
Latest details
All the Autumn and Winter recipes and paintings have been
completed. All the paintings for these seasons are available
to own right now. Summer and Spring recipes and
paintings are in progress. Summer recipe testing is *so close*
to being finished.
When
the book goes on sale, the purchase details and link will be
here.
When
the artwork is being exhibited, the details will be here.
All
the completed recipes are accessible from here for you to try
out and to share in the Table
of Contents at the end of this page. Click or scroll on
down. No link means the blog post detailing the recipe and
painting is still to come.

About the Art Filled Cookbook
This
is a year two year long
project which began in March 2010. The project is seasonal
vegetarian recipes posted freely on my blog around twice a week.
Each recipe has an original accompanying artwork. The recipes
are not just for vegetarians.
The aim is to have people swoon with yum
and not care if the meal was vege or not. Because pretty much
everyone knows a vegetarian nowadays. If a raving carnivore
needs to cook a vege meal, they usually don't know where to
start. This collection is for them as well as the full time
non-meat eaters and those looking to reduce their meat
consumption (a la Meatless
Mondays).
The
artworks for each recipe are originals that aim to capture the
essence of the dish through any means possible. Usually oil
painting. They are all a modest size of 30 x 30cm that will fit
onto a wall in even the tiniest modern flat. All the
original artworks are available to own. And at the end
will be the book. A real physical book that will be made
available through a print on demand service (let's see which one
passes my quality test).
Tell the world
Please
pass this page around as much as possible. Most people need vege
recipes at some point and these are all personally tested and
passed by moi. Foodie friends. Vego friends. Friends and
relatives of vegetarians. People you know interested in reducing
their meat eating. And art lovers. Designers. Artists.
Creatives. Spread the word far and wide!!
