Studio Practice: Food Illustration

For my final piece for this project I'll be illustrating the Japanese folktale of Urashima Taro using traditional Japanese sweets.

Since I'm going to be using food for my final piece I thought I'd look at some other artists who have used food as well:

Looking at these I realise I can do food illustrations by molding or sculpting the food, making a set using food to represent other objects e.g. Carl Warner's and Song Dong's work, or making an image just using the colour/texture of food.
