Jose Luis Garcia Lechner — Studio Garcia Amsterdam

Drawing food since
before Instagram
made it fashionable.

I'm Jose Luis Garcia Lechner, an Amsterdam illustrator working since 1996. My food illustration is rooted in mid-century commercial art — rich colour, appetising texture, and a sense of warmth that comes from drawing with your hands, not generating with a prompt.
