One of my favorite paintings from my career as an illustrator was of a Snicker’s Bar. I admit that I nibbled on my samples after photographing them.
I had my painting printed on thousands of postcards, which I mailed all over the country. It was an excellent promotional piece because Art Directors always told me that it made them hungry.
My painting was created with watercolor dyes, before there was Photoshop. Some close-ups are below.
Below is my reference photo and tracing that were part of my working process as an artist.
I have a blog where I describe my technique and have a lot more information. It is at:
