I realized today that I don’t really have the correct colors to paint garlic in watercolors. In other words, I need a better recipe! Well, if all else fails, my motto is add paint splatters!
I added a few color pencils at the end.
Speaking of recipes, I wanted to share one of my favorite ones using garlic. I used to get these recipe cards in the mail and I loved them because they have a picture of what the food is supposed to look like on one side and the recipe on the other side:
I usually add fresh parmesan cheese at the end. Hope you enjoy it!
Happy Painting! 🙂

I am loving all the different interpretations of garlic today! I don’t think there is such a thing as “garlic color” so your piece is beautiful as it is! ❤

I think the colors are wonderful! I have wondering how to paint something that is white. It feels like an enormous challenge.
I love broccoli. This recipe sounds yummy.

The splatters work great, but you really don’t need them… who cares for realistic colors?! 🙂
