Recipe Illustration - Detailed
Custom, Hand-Painted Watercolor Painting
This is a one-of-a-kind piece, based off of your cherished family recipe. This makes an amazing gift for anyone in your life who loves to cook. Moms, dads, grandparents, just about anyone would love to see their delicious recipe beautifully illustrated. Using your recipe, I design and paint a custom piece of keepsake artwork. Recipes with 10 or fewer ingredients work best. After placing your order, please email your recipe along with any special instructions to michelle@thewatercolormanuel.com. I plan the layout and text, send a draft for you to approve before finally creating the finished piece.

Social Media
I often share bits of my creative process in my Instagram/Facebook stories of what I’m working on. If you are giving your custom painting as a gift and the recipient may follow me, please let me know!
Proofing
I will email or text my pencil sketch before I paint. Proof it very carefully! If typos are caught in pencil, it’s an easy fix. Once sketch is approved & painted, artist is NOT responsible for any typos or mispellings.
