Here is my avocado to go along with the eggplant. I changed the green bits in the eggplant to tie in with the greens of the avocado to make them more of a matched set. Still may try more with the background.

Lately I've been craving eggplant a lot! I think the background needs a bit more something, but wanted to get this done tonight. A matching avocado illustration is coming soon.

Have a wafflemaker? Try my patented recipe...

Slice raw eggplant into half inch rounds. Dip in beaten egg. Roll in parmesean cheese. Place into a well-oiled wafflemaker and close. No need to press down on the lid, it will settle down as the eggplant cooks. Remove when cheese is crispy and eggplant is tender. Even if you think you don't like eggplant...this is wickedly delicious and looks super cool. Feel free to add seasonings like herbs to the parm. Or sprinkle the eggplant with garlic powder first.

This is my entry for Illustration Friday's "cracked" topic. Perhaps a little dark, but it ain't all sunshine, flowers and butterflys all the time now is it?

What do you do when your hopes and dreams don't seem to have worked out?

Per my usual M.O. created the lines in Freehand, painted a real background with paint and paper, and brought them together in Photoshop!

Any regular IFer's...feel free to find me on Facebook too. Link on the sidebar.

This is my entry for IF's "flawed" topic. Created today. Took two images of an artichoke, printed on vellum, painted the front and back of vellum, layering paint. Then tore one into vertical strips and one into horizontal strips and wove them together, for a very imperfect, flawed result, which I like. This is about 9 x 12 inches.

What do you think?

This is my entry for IF's "pale" topic. Inside the box was a large pale seed...

See last week's late entry "contained". Pretty soon the box and hand illustrations will get woven into a bigger story...I hope.

Kind regards to all who stop by.

This is my entry for IF's "opinion" topic. I've done few illustrations with this little box. I think I'll rework them into some sort of cohesive story.

So what's your opinion on what's in the box?
