This is a pudding I made for friends back in November. It started off as a bramble fool in a shot glass and by the evening had mutated into Bramble Eton Mess and I think Jane, Robert and I had more fun preparing it than eating it. I thought it tasted good though! Yes, a bit of a quick sketch and I wish I’d spent a bit more time on it, but there you go.
Gardeners’ taste in annuals differ, and I’ve tried to convey the different styles of plant by using different styles of painting. Rudbeckia and doronicums I used glazes of colour, no mixing. Nigella I used masking fluid and wet in wet, plus some scratching with a scalpel. Both methods were a bit slow for my impatient soul – maybe I should have painted impatiens!
