All this drawing is making me hungry
Today, I'm showing you the process of how I created 'Taco', an illustration for Chapter Thirteen of Doug Karr's amazing novel Dwelling.
Dorian shoved down another taco al pastor into the angry hole above his chin.
Eventually everyone got blatto enough on habanero cocktails that Dorian could finally give up faking a smile.

The process of creating 'Taco'
First, I had to research what a taco al pastor was! I found out it is a pineapple and pork taco, popular in Mexico.
The image of the taco was sketched out in pencil, then black lines were added using a dip pen and drawing ink. The paper was scraped into to create texture in the background areas before layers of ink and water were added with a brush.
Dorian found himself even more repulsed sitting at the long wooden table of Barrio Chino that night, surrounded by a little Tinder biscuit of a model and her posse of designers, finance racketeers, indie-rock-waiters, restaurateurs, and furniture-crafting-leather-working-steam-punkers-who-not-so-occasionally-worked-as-bar-backs. He dutifully posed as the phones flashed, cataloguing the non-event for all of digital eternity.
