Two years ago, I responded to the Illustration Friday prompt word "juggle" with a picture of a chef juggling the ingredients for strawberry shortcake. Maybe you remember?
Then this fall I had an art show at a local restaurant and sold that illustration. Hurray, right? Yes, but someone else wanted to buy that piece. So I was commissioned to do another drawing like... well, a lot like that one. With a twist, to keep things interesting. This is the result:
A recipe is just a finished meal undone, right? Broken down to its most basic elements.
Clever!! What is in teh window behind him? Love the feel of your pastels!

Thanks! The image in the box behind him is the finished work-- a plate of scrambled eggs.
ReplyDeletefun piece
ReplyDeleteNice illustration and great colors! Congrats on your sale!
ReplyDeleteFabulous! I love everything about it-- the color, concept, the chef's expression, the flying ingredients! Wonderful take on "undone"!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I love the colors.
ReplyDeletevery cool - looks fantastic
ReplyDeletebeautifully rendered, love the color!
ReplyDeleteboth pieces are really great and fun!
ReplyDeleteOoh! Nice style! And particularly nice use of colour, as others have said.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog, and you're right - those are THE Borrowers. Little horrors. Rampant in my house, I can tell you!
Both great pieces - I love the color combo (and mid-air grated cheese!) in the 2nd. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteVery clever concept! Especially love the eggs breaking in mid-air, great work!
ReplyDeleteLove the style and colors too. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteThese are great! I especially love the eggs and the color scheme of the green one.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a whole restaurant done in your style.
Wonderful! I like this one even better..the colors are so warm and appealing!
ReplyDeletecongrats on both the commission and the sold painting, it does beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAngela-- thanks for your kind wods. And, um, YES please! I'd love to lend my illustration skills to a restaurant's walls or menus or signage. Tell all your restaurateur friends that I'm available, everyone! ;)
ReplyDeleteThis one is even better than the first. It is filled with movement and color... very winsome!:)
ReplyDeletehaha, so funny! and I like this green one best! is even funnier! :-)
