TNT and Today's peace

My mother is easily worried. I found this quote on the web and sent it to her via our shared Dropbox folder, and forgot about it. She liked it so much that she asked me to write it on a wood spoon. I told her that the text was a bit too long for a spoon, so she brough me... a cutting board :)

My mother had complained about the knife falling from the other cutting board when one admired the drawing, so I reversed the design for her, and did not draw on the knife this time.

As for the previous one, I enlarged the eyes to make it more "chibi", and left simplistic hands to not take away the attention from the text. TNT looks like she is wearing gloves, but at least people focus on the essential!

I like the result a lot!!!

And it fits very well in the kitchen with the wordy wood spoons =OD

Careful with that knife TNT!!!

One of my cousin works at a butcher's shop. So of course I drew her a butcher TNT on a cutting board :)

I did not like my first draw, so I erased it entirely and restarted it from scratch. I voluntarily overdrew it, having a part of the drawing on the knife, filling all the space available: it seems to me that it corresponds better to the "chibi" style this way, something which I felt important since the knife might not be too kawai :/

I like the final results. My cousin too, she said she would not dare to use it for fear of damaging it! In the future I should always offer two art present: one visible and one wrapped, with instructions that they cannot open the second one till they broke the first one. This way they will have an incentive to use the first one (seeing the second one), to compete with the incentive not to use it (out of "respect" for my present. I want people to use my presents! I want them to have beauty in they life, nice glasses and tools and stuff all around them!
