The Illustrated Recipe Project:
A recipe isn’t just instructions.....It’s a memory.
A custom watercolor artwork that preserves a meaningful family recipe as a lasting heirloom.
What is it?

Hand-Painted Original
A one-of-a-kind watercolor, painted by hand and signed. Created on archival paper and designed to be framed and lived with.
Your Story, Preserved
Your handwritten or printed recipe is thoughtfully illustrated, preserving the character, imperfections, and meaning that make it yours.
How it works
Submit your recipe
Begin by sharing your recipe — handwritten, printed, photographed, or remembered — along with a few details about its story and significance.
​
Each application is personally reviewed to ensure the project is a good fit.
Planning and concept approval
Once confirmed and deposit is paid, Rebecca works with you to plan the piece, including layout, tone, and overall approach.
​
This is the stage where the direction is confirmed, before any painting begins.
Remainder of balance is paid upon sketch approval.
The artwork is created
After the concept is approved, the recipe is illustrated by hand in watercolor.
At this stage, the artwork is created as a finished piece, as with commissioned art.
Delivered to you
The completed artwork is packaged with care and delivered, ready to be framed, gifted, and lived with.
