For my final major project, I picked one main theme that I am interested in and passionate about. That theme was food illustration. I then set myself two project briefs based on that theme. I have always loved food and food illustration, and that is also the area I would love to have a career in, which is why I chose to explore it for my final major project.

Project 1: For my first FMP project, my idea was to create a series of 5 recipe cards based on family favourite quick recipes, either from our family cookbook or one not included. I showcased my recipe cards on social media where people could view and cook from them if they so desired. The idea of quick, speedy, and uncomplicated recipes was for people who have busy lives and sometimes get stuck on what to make.

Project 2: For my second FMP project, my idea allowed me to explore another interest alongside food illustration. This is abstract art. My idea was to create a series of four seasonal abstract food illustrations which could be used in Waitrose Food Magazine. The illustrations were based on recipes taken from seasonal Waitrose magazines.
