There isn’t much for me to write about regarding illustrating pet food. I just thought it would be fun to share a few illustrations I’ve done on this subject.
Pet food is just like regular food. The main issue for me was solving the texture. It was helpful to use a toothbrush to splatter, and an eraser to create rough, highlight areas.
