River Cottage Menu: Drawing

I want to create my own illustrations for the menu, definitely one for the cottage as I feel this should be on the front of the menu. Illustrations of food would also add some detailing to the back of the menu making it visually more interesting and engaging. 


I have begun collecting a selection of drawings I like so that I can refer back to the style and general aesthetic. I am especially keen to try a cross hatch approach (above) as it is effective.


 





After researching different styles of drawing I decided to use ink to create a quick sketch of the cottage to use on the menu. I may re draw the cottage once I have got a rough menu structure/layout.
