Have you ever fantasized about a world composed entirely of sweets? Will Cotton’s delicious artwork brings that dream world to life, featuring classically painted beauties lounging on cotton candy clouds and mouthwatering landscapes filled with candy canes, chocolate, and tempting sweets that depict a sugar-fest dreamland.
Cotton begins with elaborate maquettes made from real sweets and baked goods (yum!) as a reference for his paintings. In addition to painting his luscious canvases, Cotton also art directed Katy Perry’s California Gurls music video where Katy, clad in sweets, prances through a 3-D version of one of Cotton’s painted wonderlands. Cotton also painted Katy lounging on cotton candy clouds for the album cover of Teenage Dream. Amazingly, the paper the artwork is printed on is even infused with a cotton candy fragrance, creating a wonderful treat for the senses.
“I’ve always liked sweets. Still do. It just seemed like the most apt metaphor, visually, for what I’m trying to talk about, primarily because sweets are something that’s out there for pleasure only… so that, to me, makes them exactly the right landscape situation to talk about.”
—Will Cotton via GQ.

They Draw and Cook is a blog featuring inspired illustrated recipes and food art. Cooked up by professional illustrators Nate Padavick and Salli Swindell, the idea blossomed while the two were on a family vacation and Nate threw together a pasta dish based on a meal he once had in Berlin. Said dish included figs. Salli bought the figs. She began painting them. Food fused with art. From there the pair set out to create an illustrated recipe book, which also became a blog featuring yummy artwork by talented artists all around the world. A new delicious post is added daily and there’s now a separate Kids Draw and Cook blog for aspiring food lovin’ artists 16 and under. Bon Appétit!
