I’ve tried out some new foods recently, some for eating and some for drawing. The kohlrabi roasts in the oven as I type this and the aubergine — I just can’t call it eggplant! — lies waiting for an idea to pop into my head. The aubergine doesn’t look like the kind I know, the deep dark purple ones, so I just had to buy it.
I’ve taken out a veggie(and fruit)-box subscription which should introduce me to more and new and exiting veggies and fruits — which I’ll then draw.


Kohlrabi is really good raw. Just peeled and grated or very finely sliced with a squeeze of lemon. Yum.
Aubergine is good so many ways, but roasted with garlic and a few tomatoes us easy, and very very tasty.
Most excellent idea RT @tannieo: Trying out new foods and drawing them – http://tannie.nl/bd
