Sketching this stopped me finishing the packet of crisps (or chips as they say in the US). As well as avoiding unhealthy snacking sketching is also good for my mental health – my work and motivation has been a struggle recently. Sketching every evening is a way to relax and to forget work problems.

Here is another food/cooking sketch from last night. I was waiting for some chips (french fries) to cook and thought I’d use the time to sketch. The hob is black, as are the gas rings so the whole drawing ended up pretty dark! The title comes from an old TV ad in the UK when some builders in the back of a van sung “we hope it’s chips, it’s chips!”…can’t even remember what they were selling but the song always comes to mind when I am cooking chips.
