Miss Masala Cookbook






So, for my second blog I thought I would share some of my more recent work. I illustrated an Indian cookbook that originated from a blog by an Indian woman living in London, who goes by the name of Miss Masala. I had to illustrate the entire book, with the illustrations being anything from Bombay mix and other food items you would expect, to shoes, jewellery and even a Blackberry phone. Here are some examples of my work. The book itself looks great, although I would just say that the colour added wasn't done by me and would not be as I would have finished it. I will show you some examples of my own line drawings with colour next time.

First time blogging!


Hi everyone,

Welcome to my new blog all about my illustration work and also about me. I am a freelance illustrator working and living in Tring , Hertfordshire. I do my freelance work alongside working fulltime as a Restaurant and Bar Manager at The Akeman in Tring. However, I am currently on a 7 month sabbatical in New Zealand. I am working for my cousin as a Nanny for her two children during calving season and then I'm going to travel around New Zealand. I am living just outside Oamaru in Georgetown. During this time I am going to carry on my drawing and will hopefully be able to share some of my experiences with you through my illustrations. I also plan on rubbing some of my artiness on Isla and Archie my two charges.

I hope you enjoy!
