I need to take a week off from the blog to finish up a birthday book I'm compiling and designing for my mother's birthday. Today's post is a the earliest photograph I could find of her, taken in a studio in the Zhongshan area of China. She's the girl on the left.
Ellen, I love your blog! And I love that you share things like this photo of your MOM! Have fun with the birthday book - can't wait to hear about/see the finish product at lunch a week from Friday.
I like to share work in progress, random foodie notes (since I've written two cookbooks and illustrated others), and occasional past work from different periods of my 40+ years of drawing and painting.
Every Grain of Rice: A Taste of Our Chinese Childhood in America Co-written with Annabel Low, illustrated throughout with my watercolors. Winner of IACP (International Association of Culinary Professionals) Julia Child Award. Out of print, but available new and used at varying prices.
I love this photo
