This topic left me decidedly cold ñ it really was an invitation for narrow interpretations. Besides, coffee rules all over tea! So nothing left to do but go for the old T-bone steakÖ.as you can tell colour is not my forte. <<Older Main Newer>>

Your T-bone is doing a good job at repulsing Detlef! Even for non vegetarian who would die of hunger if didn’t have meat every now and again. My first thirteen years were as a vegetarian. Had a great drawing teacher who once threw a whole carcass of sheep (she was very strong) into the centre of the studio and screamed “Draw!”. Your image reminded me ... great image!

Funny! This is a great way to twist the theme!!! Love the marbeling!

On first glance it looked a bit like a handbag. A rare one. If the subject leaves you cold, maybe you should avoid the iced tea and have a hot one. Har de har. In any case, your interpretation is definitely original and beautifully rendered, as usual.

Fun illustration; thanks for putting the tea into steak.
I think your colour is wonderful.

Thank you for thinking outside the tea chest- we needed a redmeat approach to this theme. Enough with the delicate Japanese maidens already.
Regards, Neil

This has a toothy quality to it…

I’m vegan and I think this looks great. As a drawing I mean not as a meal. Uh… I’m torn. I should hate meat but I love this. Ack… not logical, losing consciousness…
love

Your drawing is very good… It gives me the creeps…

Sorry? What was that about not being good at colour? You got that one wrong, kiddo!

Seeing as you’ve drawn a bow, you could draw back the steak and shoot it at someone maybe. Thank you for your song interpretation last week, I was quite touched.. as indeed you might be!
