Kitchen Tools Series: Bowl and Whisk

I love red, and these mixing bowls have served me well. But one of them has warped a bit in the dishwasher, the edge has a dent and the rubber seal has fallen off the bottom. It’s time for a replacement. But before I retire these red bowls that have been so good to me, I thought I’d honor them with a painting.

And while we’re in the kitchen: new prints!

This is my newest adventure. Recipe prints! Once I started the recipe series, I tried to think of a way to have the whole series in one frame somehow.

These are a series of pen and ink drawings I did based on the recipe on the bottom of the page. Each drawing is an ingredient in the recipe. They are printed on a warm brown chipboard using a brown soy-based ink. I love them!

Of course, I also had to test the recipe a few times, just to make sure it’s good. It is.

You can hang this print in your kitchen too! They’re available for $15 +shipping. Just email me here.

    I have a set of Trudeau mixing bowls that look just like that, only in blue! (And the rubber ring on the bottom hasn’t lasted with mine, either – ‘course I’ve had ‘em for over 10 years now!)

    And, the illustrated recipe – what a great idea for kitchen decor!

    [...] my measuring spoons match my mixing bowls. I’m kind of a dork like that. Did I mention that I like [...]
