Pizza drawing is a popular art form that involves creating realistic or stylized illustrations of pizza. One notable example is the work of Italian artist Domenico Crolla, who gained international recognition for his detailed pizza portraits of celebrities like Bruce Springsteen and Tom Hanks. Crolla's pizza drawings, which he began creating in 2007, are made using only pizza toppings and have been featured in various media outlets worldwide. Another famous instance of pizza drawing occurred in 2013 when NASA astronaut Mike Massimino sketched a pizza on a tortilla wrap while aboard the International Space Station. The drawing, created using colored pens, was part of a demonstration to show how astronauts could personalize their meals in space. Massimino's pizza drawing garnered attention from both space enthusiasts and food lovers alike. In recent years, pizza drawing has also become a popular trend on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Artists and food enthusiasts share their creative pizza illustrations, ranging from simple sketches to elaborate designs incorporating various toppings and themes.
